I forgot to mention that another important topic on the June 26
concall was
Chris Smith's update on discussions with a potential long-haul
network carrier.
As I understand it, there are 2 major concerns:
1. The possible carrier seems to wish that LSST networking costs
somewhat subsidize other users of the network. (bad idea)
2. The carrier prefers that we do not use our bandwidth in a bursty
nature. I dont
understand the carrier's reason for this but Chris Smith can explain it.
The result is that we should review what bandwidth we really need
back to the
US and examine possibilities to spread out our bandwidth needs to
reduce the bursts.
