well of course i'm not bill, but (naturally) i will comment anyway. was AMS-IX planning to expand beyond its original metro and bridge all the XP switches together? if so then i understand exactly why KQ and other ISP's would have pulled out of AMS-IX in protest (and in fear). however, if the expansion was intra-metro, then i must be confused, because KQ's major source of bandwidth revenue should have been inter-metro not intra-metro. -- Paul Vixie
