Sorry, Francis,
=> one detail which is never called to mind here is an university which gives internet access to its students *outside* the university (i.e. in a context where students can need a /48) should be sued by all commercial ISPs for illegal competition using public money...
but this statement is simply ridiculous.... and completely off-topic as well.

but this statement is simply ridiculous.... => I don't believe you can use your public funding to remove 50K customers per university from the market without any kind of "collaboration" with a commercial ISP... and completely off-topic as well. => I disagree: the issue is to know if NRENs and even universities are ISPs or not. Obviously they are *not* standard ISPs... Regards Francis.Dupont@enst-bretagne.fr PS: if Nordunet (a NREN) was a standard ISP then UNI-C shoud have got a prefix from Nordunet as with standard business relationships between a tear-2 ISP and its upstream ISP. But Nordunet is not so UNI-C is in trouble.
