To that effect, Does anyone out there have a solid explanation from them as to why they chose to do what they Did ? Joe, You used to work @ Clear.. Surely you have inside knowledge :) Sorry if this is old news, if theres a link, post it please. -----Original Message----- From: Keith Davidson [mailto:keith(a)wise.net.nz] Sent: Tuesday, 1 March 2005 14:19 To: nznog(a)list.waikato.ac.nz Subject: Re: [nznog] I-Root Server avaiable at the WIX Hmmm, so the aberrant nature of peering in NZ rears its ugly head...
