final note on cookreport/ bill woodcock peering discussion

Wed Sep 4 01:34:01 UTC 2002

I am leaving at 6 am in the morning for  a small internet meeting in 
massachusetts.  I am unlikely to see my email  again until saturday 
morning.

We have had eight different requests to join the discussion since my 
post this afternoon.

Since the mail list is running on bill's woodcock's  machine, it is 
only reasonable that he be the gatekeeper on additions to the list at 
this point.  However he is at APIA in Japan right now and will not be 
back in the US for a bit more than another week.  if I understand the 
situation correctly he will need to relay list addition requests to a 
colleague in California.  If some folk do get added between now and 
the weekend please introduce yourselves to the list.

Agenda

I intend to publish an issue with list discussion around October 1. 
although since I let list members  have a week to review a prepub 
draft and ask for edits correctionss etc, the current discussion will 
need to wrap up in the sept 23-25th time frame.

But since  the subject may change and evolve i am open to keeping the 
discussion going for a LOT  LOT LONGER either on bills server or in 
another venue.

I will be out of the country trekking near mount everest from October 
15th until November 10th.  The issue published about Oct 1 will be 
the December issue.  I estimate that january will come out about 
december 1.  If a discussion is continuing on line in october and 
november, it can certainly do so in my absence.

I'd like to thank everyone for their help.  I hope that we can 
document in considerable detail the changing economics, policy, 
politics and technologies of interconnection.
