"IX" as a component of a name is _intended to insinuate_ the availability of peering, _regardless of whether that's actually true or false_. Which is why we keep analogizing to the STIX, which was _called_ an IX, but was _not_ an IX, in that it had nothing to do with peering, only with a single provider's commercial transit product. The same is currently true throughout much of the Middle East. -Bill
