The exchange point is definitely the best place across which traffic to/from the GGC can be exchanged. However, that doesn't necessarily mean it should be hosted there (which is probably why Google chose to deploy them where they currently are). The idea I'm getting is that the various ISP's in .ug (including UTL and MTN) will need to come together and figure out a way to make this happen. Having said that, Google's position is very clear - if the networks hosting the GGC are unable to share it with the other networks, the cache will be pulled. Cheers, Mark.
