there is the rest of the world, it is a global internet. the north american influence decreases continuously, some because of growth of the global internet, which is a good thing. some because of noam making itself less and less relevant, as you point out. take a look at http://archive.psg.com://rpki-rollout.jpg kinda tells you what's happening, eh? lacnic has more roll-out than arin, and proportionally it is even more impressive; over 20% of lacnic allocations have roas. and there is ripe, with the sheer numbers. randy
