of size for the participants at the IXP, as opposed to just
a count of number of participants.
Perhaps, but that data would only be a very loose approximation,
since the only data I have access to is historical data of
peerings with the route servers and IRR data. And as you are
well aware, particularly in the early days, there was not
universal acceptance of either technology.
I think I'll stay with the participant count and consider
how to start collecting the data you are after for future
presentations.
