I think that performance IS of prime concerne as much as reliability and redundency (wich
is the 2 face of a same problem)
Reliability with lack of performance will not fix our situation. adding hundreds of
milisecond to a network conection , even if stable is in no way an improvement.

Yes I think the design and deployment of the new backbone network which would replace IPIP
tunnels and would offload
the mandatory task of (complex) routing from the beginning user should be the first
priority.
It would lower the bar of entry and it would also solve the issues that the recent TAC
proposal appears to target.
When budget is a problem, I think some of the existing gateways (certainly the one here in
the Netherlands) would be able
to offer the function or the hosting of that function for their region. We currently
have 1Gbit internet connection, soon
to be upgraded to 10Gbit, and a powerful system. Furthermore I think that bandwidth and
performance is not really
the first concern at the current load. Focus should be on reliability, possibly through
having enough redundancy in
the network.

With this in mind, what problems with the AMPRnet do you think we should be trying to
solve first?
One thing we haven't communicated well before, is that we are actively discussing
budget and infrastructure for a “backbone” network of PoPs (Points of Presence) of the
44net on various continents, to make it easier for hams to connect to the AMPRnet with
minimal effort and higher performance. If you have ideas about how you would like to see
this happen, feel free to share here on the mailing list. I know that there’s at least one
alternative proposal on the way.
