I learned that there's a major networking measurement
project being coordinated by CNRI. The guy running
it is named Ira Richard, and he's with CNRI's Boston
office. Apparently they've got 20 sites that ping each
other in various ways at various times to determine a
bunch of operational characteristics. Oughta check it
out.

I suspect that this is related to CNRI's involvement in the IOPS project,
a closed-door (at least to the multitude of ISPs and most wannabe NSPs)
consortium of the ~16 NSPs.
