C&W Peering Problem?

Fri Jun 1 20:44:19 UTC 2001

It wouldn't suprise me if C&W dropped GlobalCenter as a peering partner, 
given GC's focus on datacenters and web/server farms generating mostly
"push" traffic - I didn't see this as an explicit requirement, but less 
clueful backbones (Genuity, PSI, and now C&W) do tend to drop peering 
sessions with other backbones that push far more traffic than they pull.

BTW, I just noticed that the Exodus/GC merger went through (at least, 
www.globalcenter.com brings up Exodus's front page). When did this happen?
