A non-profit donation-based IX that doesn't produce results could be screwing its "customers" over more than a MRC-based for-profit IX that does produce.An IX just needs to "produce" a layer 2 peering fabric. That's not a tall order to get results from. Anything beyond that is extra fluff. Some people want to pay more for the fluff, some don't.
This is a *common* misunderstanding. The by far easiest part of running a successful IXP is the technical part. The more challenging is to build a community around it. And that's purely non technical and involves a lot of *social* networking and bringing people together. btdt Arnold -- Arnold Nipper email: arnold () nipper de phone: +49 6224 5593407 2 mobile: +49 172 2650958 fax: +49 6224 5593407 9
