If access was restricted to a country, that's fine (au and tw have been 
doing it for ages), but to restrict it to a single IX troubles me.  I am 
all for offering private repositories as a service to IX customers, but 
they shouldn't have freebsd.org CNAME's then.  (they can be listed on 
the mirrors list, etc.) 

This is just my own opinion, and I am sure others will surely 
disagree. :)

Best Wishes - Peter
