Hello,

Just wanted to provide an initial heads up.  Daniel has added some 
initial support for multi homing for PlanetLab nodes.  With this support 
we have the option to ask PlanetLab sites who have connected one set of 
machines to their academic network and another set of machines to 
DSL/Cable to just multi-home them across both of those networks.  Of 
course, the question then is what should be routed upstream via the 
DSL/Cable network vs. the (academic/other) network connection.  Any 
thoughts on how this should be done for the long term would be greatly 
appreciated.

Cheers,
Marc
