An update on my side, we reached out to PhoenixNAP, one of the Phoenix-IX's vendors.
PhoenixNAP reached out all of their contacts at Phoenix-IX and have received no response. They are in as much of the dark as the rest of us. I feel like I'm on the Ghost ship Phoenix-IX. What I don't understand, is how somebody could abandon a project without passing it to another person or entity. This is extremely irresponsible. — Kate > On Nov 12, 2020, at 05:11, Marcus Josephson <[email protected]> wrote: > > I tried to get a link to PHX-IX for months.
