RE: Google groups outage
My favorite is my Droid telling me I'm not driving on a road while on one of the biggest expressways in Chicago. Then, sometimes it decides to route me through Kansas to get somewhere less than a mile from my house. Joe Johnson Chief Information Officer Riverside Consulting Group, Ltd.

This is true for many of Google's projects. I believe it's an artifact of their "20%" policy. People are given work assignments on projects that Google wants improvements on, and then in 20% of their time they can work on projects of their own choosing. I believe that many (most?) of Google's abandoned projects were 20% projects, and their supporters did the first 90%[1] then got bored (lazy) and moved on to something new(er) and more exciting. I'm pretty sure Orkut and Google Groups were both 20% projects that have since been essentially abandoned. And don't get me started on Android. The mapping and navigation software on Android sucks so many different ways that I'm surprised that Google allowed it out into the real world, nevermind providing it on shipping products. It's been this broken for over a year, so obviously there isn't anyone inside Google who cares to fix the obvious problems. Whoever it was that developed these aps to this 90% state, has moved on to some new(er) and more exciting 20% project. jc [1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ninety-ninety_rule

Maybe encourage people like Apple, Xerox, HP or Ford to migrate their operations completely to IPv6 and return their /8? j
RE: Home CPE choice
I have a small HP dummy terminal I installed a CFIDE card in with m0n0wall that has run beautifully for the past 3 years. Barely has any power draw and cost me a whopping $100 after shipping. I keep a few of the dummy terminals around in case this one dies (it's about 6 years old and came from a heavy-use banking application). Joe

Ditto on that. Of about 12 ASA 5505s and 5510s I've deployed in the last year, only one didn't come with a private IP enabled and a public interface set to DHCP. The only one that didn't was running about a year behind in firmware, while the rest came pre-loaded with the latest.

We're back up in both Chicago locations, Troy, LA, Dallas, and NY now. Chicago, Troy, and LA were complete losses for close to 35 minutes and Dallas and NY were 50-60% packet loss, so they were practically worthless. Thanks! Joe
