Richard, I believe you also missed must operate a US-wide OC48 network.
Personally I would go with "must operate a network with sufficient capacity to support the traffic being exchanged". Unless I was selling US-wide OC48s of course.
must exchange at 4 locations over OC3 or above with at least 45Mb traffic per location
Not an entirely unreasonable goal. But then we come to bizaare ones like: D. The applicant shall take steps to ensure that its routes are not announced to Cable & Wireless from another network. What exactly is this supposed to accomplish?
and most friendly of all, you must supply a detailed network topology and current operational capacities.. why not ask for 5 year business plan and bank numbers too .. and how about next weeks lottery numbers?
I don't suppose they'd take too kindly to an ascii diagram which just happens to resemble a middle finger, would they? :) Oh BTW on the subject of peering, has anyone noticed that AOL has cut off a large number of transit providers and reportedly a number of content hoster peers (though I havn't seen this first-hand) in recent days. I guess when you have the largest eyeball population your only remaining goal is to have the largest content population too.
