Now's your chance, the FCC just released a Notice of Inquiry, FCC 98-187, "Inquiry Concerning the Deployment of Advanced Telecommunications Capabilities..." available in a variety of formats via http://www.fcc.gov/ccb/706/ Take a look at paragraph 79: What can and should the Commission do to preserve efficient peering arrangements among Internet companies, especially in the face of consolidations of large proprietary gateways? We ask for comment whether the Commission should monitor or have authority over peering arrangements to assure that the public interest is served. But be careful, commenting could be akin to opening "Pandora's Box" ;-) Nick
