Sorry, Brian. Your model gets complicated quick when you add in the
regionals, who support both research and commercial clients. Your
model doesn't improve their situation one bit, in fact. We would all
still have to have tables of who's who in order to implement the two
flavor policy routing that Yakov mentioned some time ago.
Seems that there is no easy answer. Easiest answer is private
networking from which the NSF or other government institution buys
service for RE. That eliminates the need to discriminate "good" RE
bits from "evil" CO bits (or is it the other way around :-). I am not
so naive as to expect this to happen. Heck, we would have nothing to
argue about for several hours per day if this were done.
