Leo, Route leaks aside, there is currently a Technical Working Group forming for discussion of technical topics relating to the new NAP. A web page will be up after the first of the year, but the mailing list is operational now. An operations list, and a general admin list will follow.

While there are membership meetings, the cookies are optional :) I believe the hope is to combine the business acumen of the operator, Terramark, with the benefits of a member run organization, NOTA. If folks don't like things about it, they should get involved and change them. I have been extremely impressed by everyone involved with this initiative so far - there are no agendas, and it's not a closed, "club" atmosphere. Everyone is given the opportunity to contribute. I guess my hope at this point is that BellSouth will jump on the bandwagon, and make their facility part of NOTA. I just hope everyone goes into this with an open mind, and gives it a chance.
