Opt-In document posted

I just posted "Requirements for Wholesale Opt-In" at
http://groups.geni.net/geni/attachment/wiki/RegionalOptIn/OptInReqs.pdf

Abstract:

This document outlines requirements for a strong wholesale opt-in mechanism
for GENI.  When fully deployed it would permit GENI experimenters to request
that ISPs redirect traffic from a huge population of innocent users through
GENI infrastructure.  These users are innocent in the sense that they do not
have to do anything at all to participate, and might not even be aware that
they are doing so.  Key to wholesale opt-in is that it fully engages the
Institutional Review Board (IRB) process and that all participants are
motivated by their own self interests to do the right thing.  It does not
require ``selling'' GENI to application developers or anybody other than
network researchers.

Since the ISPs bear a disproportionate share of the risk with this technique,
the ISPs are granted additional controls, implemented in an ``ISP Daemon''
that serve to isolate the ISPs' critical core routers from GENI.

When this approach is fully mature we expect it to be sufficiently robust
where NSF might include GENI opt-in language in research solicitations across
the entire foundation.  This could bring as much traffic to GENI as is
currently carried in aggregate by all of today's production research and
education backbones.

--
I consider this document to still open for additions and improvements.
Comments welcome.  Ideally it would include input from the entire OptIn WG.

This is one of my deliverables: can somebody clue me into all the
places that this should be posted?

Thanks,
--MM--

I think cross-posting to omis-wg would be a good idea, especially  
since there are folks with ISP experience there.

Oops, I had to move the document to it's own page:
