Hi,

Question about the confederation draft:

Who are eligible for membership?  The document states that only Internet
Service Providers, commercial and non-commercial, can join.  Does
this eliminate the possibility of say, universities, joining?  Or,
can they be considered as a non-commercial ISP (providing services
to the faculty and student body).

So, if a university wants to multihome between two or more providers,
and needs provider-independent space should it go straight to APNIC?

Thanks.

Sincerely,

--
