What might have been a lightning talk on anycast had I gotten to a meeting
Economies and underemployment being what they are, I won't be getting to the in-person meeting, but it occurred to me that a brief tutorial on some of the operational applications of anycast might be a lightning tutorial. I wrote such a short article at http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/Anycasting. Citizendium, as some of you may know, is a open-content wiki that operates on a real-names model with hopefully helpful expert review. I'm starting to take some of my past NANOG presentations and turn them into articles or sets of related articles, obviously updating them. Since NANOG doesn't have a publication mechanism for its presentations, or even summaries of long mailing list threads written for someone who had not been following them, it might be useful as a means of education. I'd welcome anyone who would like to participate; it's still an early project. Given, for example, the various trade press pieces on BGP security and vulnerability expert, I may try, unless someone already has a tutorial they might like to be adapted, they'd like to write, or co-write, to do something at a little more detailed level than Network World, but lighter than an RFC. I have assorted BGP articles there, still at an introductory level, and was starting something on routing policy.
