Since the device count is not the limited resource but the route count is how about a completely different size measure.
As a first attempt: 1. Define a list of interconnect points (NAPS/interconnect exchanges) This would be fairly strict with only the main interconnect points in each country qualifying.
But wouldn't that be a step into enforcing a more centralized internet infrastructure? I always thought that you want it as decentralized as possible? And this would give the peering point in the list an unfair advantage over alternative peering points in the area. I can already see peering points sueing the ripe to get on that list... And I have to admit they are right, as the RIPE should not assign monopolies. Nils -- Und wenn er einen MCSE hat, dann ist er zertifizierter Bootmanager.
