[lir-wg] IXP networks routing / IXP membership
- Date: Sun, 2 Mar 2003 16:12:58 +0100
Hi Kurt, Hi Pim, and everybody who listens,
I would like to support Kurt´s request for inventing an IXP membership.
Today the ixp´s are a vital part of the global infrastructure, but they are
not represented as a legal member of ripe. Sure we can come to every meeting
and can do nearly all the things the LIR´s are doing, but it is always some
kind of guest status.

This is very simple. Have a lock at the peering matrix and you can
distinguish between a enterprise and an IXP (or am i wrong here?).
greetings
