Abstract: Agenda
-----------
2:00-2:15 - Topic and Speaker, TBD


2:15-2:30 - Favorite Peering Routers - Discussion Facilitator: Tom Scholl

This discussion will enumerate the top reasons Peering Coordinators prefer one router over another for the purposes of peering. We will have microphones circulating around the room so folks can chime in.

2:30-3:10 - The Great Debate - Should Consistent Announcements and a Backbone always be a requirement for multi-site Peering?

The two debaters have agreed, regardless of their personal opinions, to present and defend the strongest arguments on both sides:

Peter Cohen will be arguing that consistent announcements are indeed a rational requirement for multi-site peering.

Aaron Hughes will be arguing that consistent announcements are not a valid peering requirement when peering with content that is duplicated/mirrored across multiple sites.

The format is the same as previous debates:
2 minutes for each side to state their case
2 minutes each side to attack the others position and reinforce their position
2 minutes each to sum up their argument

We will take an audience vote : Which side made the more compelling case? This will determine the winner of the debate.

We will then open the floor to discussion, highlighting points that should have been made during the debate, points or questions that might highlight issues that might sway the audience to vote for which *argument* ultimately is stronger, after the audience discussions is over.

We will take a final vote on the issue: \"Should Consistent Announcements and a Backbone always be a requirement for multi-site Peering?

3:10-3:30 - Other topics that pop up from the community between now and the meeting and Peering Personals where Peering Coordinators can introduce themselves to the group, with the goal of initiating the peering negotiations.
Files: None.
Sponsors: None.
