Well, at least two people are now live on the mae-east ATM. Above.net, with
an OC12, and Iconnet, with an OC3. After being operational for a few days,
I can say that it performs really well with 1 Mbps of traffic :-)
Hopefully, some more folks will be live on it soon, and we can see how it
is going to scale. I still think that PNIs are the right way to go,
but this will work fine for the smaller networks, as an economy-of-scale
connection. Let's hope the switches have adequate buffering...
