This is my first message to the list, so I hope this wasn't discussed before...
Following the discussion at RIPE35 about "scoring" the results, I would
like make the following suggestions:
1. Keep the results for latency and packet loss separate. This gives a
finer notation.
2. Divide latency by the "real" distance between hosts. Given the fact that
they all have a GPS receiver, they should be able to give very precise
location, can't they? This would make sure that test-boxes away from the
larger groups don't get "bad" scores.
Comments?
Jacques.
