What I don't like in the whole discussion is, that I have never seen
any statement from SWITCH during the last few days. I'm sure they are
reading this, but it seems the policy of SWITCH not to discuss these
important topics with all the ignorant users for whom they provide
service. I would be interested to hear what the official policy of
SWITCH is as well as the private opinions of the people actual managing
the network.
This is not restricted to this discussion here. Try to count how often you
see a posting from somebody at SWITCH.
