New POPs?

HE seems to have POPs in Zurich, Stockholm and Tokyo. Will there be tunnelbroker POPs at these loations in the future?

Yes. Hardware is en route.

This is great news for me, asi live in Norway sending packets to London (oddly the quickest PoP for me) still creates a ferst hop (ipv6) of <60 ms while other servers in Stockholm ar generally <40ms and sometimes by a sigfficant margin. Any ETA on the avalebillity of that PoP in the tunnel broker?

Stockholm is one of the last POPs to get it's gear shipped out. I'll make the usual forum announcement when the POPs are live! I promise!

Care to list an inventory of this equipment for curious IT people? I know you may not want to for a bunch of reasons. :p

Don't forget to update the map at http://www.he.net/Hurricane_Electric_Geographic_Network_Map.jpg

I'm also surprised there's no Denver POP. May other carriers seem to have a presence there.

Except HE's focus seems to be on cities with fairly good peering points and Denver has essentially nothing.

Denver has come up in conversation, but it's on the roadmap made up from imaginary capital. It isn't an outright impossibility, just not practical at the moment.

Stockholm is one of the last POPs to get it's gear shipped out. I'll make the usual forum announcement when the POPs are live! I promise!

Wow that was a quick reply, I now that giving exact dates is difficult but can you give a rough estimate on the availability of the Stockholm PoP?

Not at this time, still waiting on vendors of various things.

A bit OT but has Montreal ever been discussed as a city for a HE POP?

Not as of yet, but we're looking at expanding more overseas than in NA at this time.

Hello
Any news on the Stockholm PoP yet? I know this can be taken as nagging, I isn't ment to be, but I'm exited to try it out. If you need beta testers for the PoP I hereby volunteer. A few friends of mine has shown interest but when they heard that the wold need to change their config and all dns mapings (one of them runs abunch of VMs for testing a number of things and he just loves the idea of having them accessible via ipv6) they said the wanted to wait for Stockholm to go live.

So, any ETA yet, at last which mounth?
Thanks again for a great free service
