Precedent, Randy, Precedent ! UUnet and few others a long time ago had a differing definition of peering that most of us thought, at the time... But were so BIG, we accepted their routes, anyway. * shrug * A secret black list is a real bugger if: No one is allowed to mention it exists.

If the .MIL network can't provide International Internet service, is it time to move the g.root-servers.net and h.root-servers.net off their current .MIL hosts to better locations to serve the entire Internet. Otherwise .MIL policies reduce the robustness of the overall Internet. Heck, even when

Cough, bad idea, cough. From past experience I don't think that you'll find the DREN to be substantially more reliable as far as reachability and blocking policies go than most of the rest of .mil. It USED to be more open, but there were some policy changes, some peering arangements, and
