We are discussing the PicoPeering Agreement in Denmark. Questions people are asking: does the Peering Agreement cover the transit to/from the Internet? Do I have to break my user agreement w/ ISP to comply w/ Agreement? A thought: the word "network" should become "router" in the following gloss. "Transit: Transit is the exchange of data into, out of or across a network". Consensus that it is not an agreement or a contract between individuals but a declaration. Much discussion about port filtering to control, say, P2P programs. I mention that if you block ports, it has network-wide effects. If you are on the (weighted) shortest path between a source and destination, blocking port 25, then the source needs to re-run SPF to take this into account. Yuck! Seems to be consensus that port filtering is complicated; people may still want to do it. People do not want to bar it in the agreement.
