Paul, et al.

As I have responded privately to to others offlist, while MAE-LA has
withered, the other half of the exchange in LA (LAAP - www.laap.net)
run by the University of Southern California is still active.  The
Telehouse LA facility is interconnected to the LAAP exchange and there
are other things in the offing that I am not at liberty to disclose
today, but will be rolled out in the very near future (press releases
being prepared as I write).

So yes, there are viable options in the Los Angeles area for AP
carriers to exchange traffic with other entities here and vice versa.

so what does that make telehouse-la after all these years... chopped liver?
there have been Plenty of asian isp's in los angeles for Quite a while now.

there also seems to be a PAIX switch inside 1 Wilshire now.  (mfn's chap.11
filing having sawn off any hope we had of opening PAIX-LA.)
