[Chapter-delegates] New Papers on Internet Exchange Points

[Karen Rose]

Dear Colleagues:

ISOC recently published two new papers on Internet Exchange Points. 

The first is "Promoting the Use of Internet Exchange Points:  A Guide to 
Policy, Management, and Technical Issues."   It was written for ISOC by 
Mike Jensen, who is Internet development expert from South Africa.  Mike 
participated in ISOC's best practices session on IXPs held at the 
Internet Governance Forum (IGF) in Rio last year.  He is also an active 
adviser to the Association for Progressive Communications (APC).  A PDF 
version of the report is located at: 
http://www.isoc.org/educpillar/resources/docs/promote-ixp-guide.pdf

The second paper is a short overview of IXP essentials drawn from the 
above report.  The PDF is located at:  
http://www.isoc.org/educpillar/resources/docs/promote-ixp-summary.pdf

Both of these reports, as well as additional documents on Internet 
Exchange Points, can also be found on our IXP information page at

Best regards,
Karen
