(To get the ICM DS3 up and running on time for the 21st (instead of before the 30th) we have some timing issues that are pretty critical, namely provisioning the DS3 and installing all the equipment. It is unclear that this is possible on the MFS side (never mind the paperwork process, which we probably will just have to ignore in the short run). What is clear though is that current connectivity to MAE-EAST is insufficient for making 21 April a happy day --
I seriously doubt this will be a problem if you push. We had a T3 installed for Internet World In San Jose with 3 days notice. MFS & PacBell were both very cooperative. This move up date concerns us a lot, too. We're still waiting for MAE-west to come online completely to complete our west coast peering arrangements, and hoping to get connectivity to fix-west/sprint along the way soon as well.
