IIRC, Albuquerque has NMIX which I think was setup as for-profit. (John Brown are you still here?) Well over a decade ago now, my recollection is fuzzy. I don't recall the reasoning in choosing for-profit over nont-for-profit.[NMIX couldn't pay its bills so it lost a lot of support/clients]
Ah thanks for that update.You've reminded me of another point: While it is admirable that CIRA (and probably other similar counterparts are watching) looking to establish IXPs, my anxiety lies with the future: Given everything that's already been written, are any of these IXPs capable of becoming self-sustaining in the future? It's a rhetorical question applicable to any starting IXP and requires an understanding of the local environment.
