But the use of POPs does not preclude keeping the current mesh.
From the point of view of the existing users, POPs are just gateways in
the mesh, announcing a bigger network, like e.g. a /16 for national
services, maybe even a /16 via BGP if possible. Nothing changes at
first, and established setups will continue to work, and there is no
change needed to their configurations. Of course, if they want, they can
alter their setup later on.
It is not changing/replacing existing functionalities, but adding to them.
At least this is how I would see such a development.

Marius,
I fully agree with that. But as you have seen, when suggestions are
made here to change
towards such a network, there always is negative feedback from some
people who just
do not want to change, and bring up "advantages" of the current IPIP
mesh to explain
why we should keep it like that.
That is why I tried to provide solutions to enable those people to
come on board.
