why not discuss it here a bit? I feel it would make a lot of sense, even for us! Seeing that we will likely leave several public exchanges as traffic grows too much to handle it safely on a shared infrastructure some select peerings are surely making a lot of sense here, and for Switzerland especially, I should say. Think about a L2 link between these two sites, being available as a special VLAN on both public exchanges in addition to those completely seperate ones that all operators are welcome to keep on running, not touch, etc. Operationally it should not be any problem in my view to safely exchange one VLAN for the interconnection of these two exchanges, it would be an added service, it would normally not affect those that take the plain 'TIX' or 'CIXP' service.
