Dear GNA-G Community:
Earlier this week, the Q4 2021 Community VCs took place. If you were
there, thank you for participating!
One of the topics that was discussed is the draft for the new map for
the front page of the GNA-G website (https://www.gna-g.net/) Since the
time the existing map was created, the GREN has moved forward.
A big thanks to Jane Gifford of AARNet who is the creator of the
original map. She is now working with the Leadership Team on creating an
update.
The draft new map as was shown during the Q4 2021 Community VCs. During
the VCs, we already received the following comments (thanks!):
* The interconnection between the North American GXPs needs to be reviewed.
* A new link between Mtunzini and Amsterdam, that balances the link
between Cape Town and London, should be added.
* In AER, Jeddah should be a dot on the map, as there is a GXP in
Jeddah, and the links between Jeddah and Amsterdam and between Jeddah
and Singapore should be double.
* In APOnet, there are a few links that might need to be double.
* Also in APOnet, the links to Auckland need a double check.
Please review the map and reply to me with your suggestions. I will
collect them, review them with the Leadership Team and Jane, and from
that we will produce the new version.
Thank you and happy holiday season.
Kind regards,
