I think the mirroring will happen naturally once we can see the effects of the IXP. There are some highly conspicuous absentees so far...

Hi all.

It's been a very quiet two months, or less, since a member joined the
exchange. A call out to all other ISPs, what is taking you so long? UTL have
provided a proof-of-concept opportunity with a free 128Kbps leased line or
frame relay connection, but I am seeing close to no movement. What is
happenning?


Meanwhile, a request to all interested parties; if you are hosting any
'local' sites 'outside' the country [UK, USA], could you please have a copy
of that site [Web site, mail service, audio/video stream, e.t.c] with one of
the ISPs currently at the exchange, and maybe make a link [if HTTP] on the
primary copy that says something like:


-->If you are in Uganda, click here <--
-->Else, click here<--

The first link would then hook back to a local IP address. This should
improve local traffic numbers, as well increase the amount of media
available over the exchange. Any thoughts?
