Bill,

Oh.

In that case can you be a little more explicit?

I have always felt like ISP have a different need than end-sites, and
understood the divergence
in policy for the two.

For example, and ISP should be forced to document when it makes an
assignment to a customer,
The same requirement doesn't apply to a University who is assigning space
to the philosophy department.

What differences between ISPs and end-sites do you think are unfair.
