There's one in 365 Main SF, there's KleyReX in the same building as DE-CIX, Big APE in 111 8th, NYCx there too, ChicagoIX just opened, etc., etc.Excellent point on Europe. Not so much in the United States. Do SFMIX, BIG APE, NYCX, etc 1) have more than a half dozen participants 2) exchange any traffic other than BGP keep-alives and ARP? :) I think not. When you look at why not, it's usually always predatory practices on the part of various collo and IX operators preventing widespread adoptation. If CHIX were doing real traffic, do you think Equinix would allow them to remain accessible from their suites, and in a cost-effective manner?Trust me, it _is_ being done.It's being done, just not on a large scale in the United States outside of the SIX.
Is there a more appropriate place for interested parties to discuss the possible creation of such a beast in the WDC area? I know we have about a lot of optical capacity we could help contribute to a stake in the ground between Equinix/Ash and a facility less than 1ms away if there is interest.
