Like, how? There isn't a single continent served by a only one provider, with the possible exception of Antarctica. :) -- miguel a.l. paraz <map@iphil.net> | pgp key id: 0x43F0D011 iphil communications, makati city, philippines | <http://www.iphil.net>

Each continent is served by only one registry, correct? I guess I should have been more clear. What I am wondering is anyone doing what is described in RFC 1518, section 5.7? Thanks! -BD

-- Miguel,
You have just given me even more ammunition for my argument that the IETF needs to update RFC1149, "Standard for the Transmission of IP Datagrams over Avian Media." Previously, I have been concerned that it ignored the use of security mechanisms available in the transmission system, such as audit trails left on windshields, rooftops, statues, etc. But your comment reminds me that RFC1149 is not as general as claimed, but is really pigeon-centric and oriented to metropolitan area transmission. Clearly, Antarctica would make use of penguin-based transmission over much wider areas. Howard
