I'm sitting here with most of my MAE-East peers down, expecting chaos and packet loss everywhere. However, generally speaking the world seems to be performing far better than with it up. I can reach Microsoft with no packet loss. When MAE-East was up, record was 75% packet loss ("that's normal" was the response). I'd figured all the other IXPs would be congestion hell. Not from here. Is it just me, or is there a moral here ... -- Alex Bligh GX Networks (formerly Xara Networks)

Well, it _is_ Saturday morning, which is typically a very light time of day traffic-wise.

Even connectivity between UUNet and Sprint is good today.
