I think we need an emai list with both skillsets on it?

REmember this affects each one of us.

Join an IX your provider is on?
As someone that works for an IXP these days, I would prefer *NOT* having to deal with people that do not understand the 
Internet ecosystem. Which hospitals, and most businesses are.
An IXP is not an ISP targeting business/corporate. We're already dealing with people that do not understand what an IXP does, and 
open tickets every time a direct BGP session (one between 2 peers, not involving the route-server) goes down. Even had "Google is 
slow" tickets.
Joining an IX purely for PNI/NNI interconnection may be an option, but only if you are 100% sure that the other party agrees an 
PNI/NNI over an IX. Some do, some don't, most don't even know it's a possibility.
