If this actually develops, we would like to post links to it from our
page, as I am sure every other rack provider would like to do. To vote
on one topology might inadvertently alienate some providers. That is
not as much a concern to us as some of the providers with smaller racks.
As a suggestion, wait to see how the scenarios start to come in and see
what topologies they match versus choosing one topology to conform to.
This might also allow for more diversity and creativity in the lab
scenarios.
That is my two cents. Thank you for all of your time.

Fantastic! Thanks Brian! Please create an account on Studylabs.org and
send me a copy of your topology offline. I will post on Studylabs. We
need to vote on which topology to use.
Thanks!
Paul

Paul,
I can supply and host equipment for this. I have some extra space free
at my ISP.

Oops, forgot the URL of the website: http://www.studylabs.org
We have 1GB of webspace and 1GB of transfer which should be plenty.
Take care,
Paul

Ok, I have a mailing list setup for this project. I also have the
website established. For now there is not a lot on the website. Once
we get going we will have special privilege sections for developers to
work and sections for people to download beta copies and final copies of
the labs.
If you are interested, please join the mailing list by sending a TEXT
e-mail to majordomo@studylabs.org. Place in the body of the message:
subscribe developers
I just set this up so it might take up to 24 hours for the DNS to
propagate. If your e-mail bounces, try again tomorrow. If you keep on
having problems, send me an e-mail.
Take care,
Paul Borghese

Paul,
I'd be open to "donating" some of our already developed, CCIE-level
e-Scenarios! (No EULA attached ;-)
