You might want to take a look at the APCAUCE track at APRICOT 2005 (feb 3rd wk 2005 at Kyoto, Japan) - you'll meet a bunch of Chinese operators there, and can discuss this and other issues with them. Highlight of this track - Dave Crocker, Jim Fenton and Meng Wong will be doing a panel on reputation / authentication etc proposals, and their operational aspects. http://www.2005.apricot.net/conference.html#C6-3 -- Suresh Ramasubramanian (ops.lists@gmail.com)
