Hi hasu,

Although I am all in favor of community-based efforts I see difficulties in
building a shared AS. As I am sure you know you need an AS-number and some
BGP-speaking devices to multihome. Whats the point in sharing the AS-number
? it is not expensive... The expensive part are the bigger routers and the
know-how to use them. The community-based effort then is the interconnection
of the networks, also known as peering, and we have SwissIX for that in
addition to private peerings with your buddies. If you want to multihome
yourself then it must be worth the effort (=expense) for you to build up
your own infrastructure for it - or else let someone else (aka ISP) manage
it for you. You might have to choose a different ISP for your desired
cost/redundancy ratio though...
