references[edit]

Thanks, The Anome, for finding some references. However, two of the references you have found appear to be all about telephony, but the article links to and appears to mostly discuss internet related interconnections. I had seen similar of these links in my search before the prod/afd. Maybe this article should be switched to telephony? Wrs1864 (talk) 15:48, 5 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It's both, really. The two cases are very similar, and involve very similar (and often the same) entities, and the boundaries between telephony, Internet, messaging services, etc, etc, are all dissolving, so it's likely that the distinction will evaporate very soon. -- The Anome (talk) 15:55, 5 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Maybe the differences will evaporate, but that is WP:CRYSTAL. I complete agree that what you have written in the article and your comment above is accurate, but you haven't found any WP:RS to back up the writing, at least with respect to IP. Wrs1864 (talk) 15:58, 5 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Google has quite a few examples of practical applications of the phrase "Interconnect agreement" in the context of the Internet. (companies like to reassure large customers about the strength & resilience of their network connectivity). I first heard this term a few years ago, when a major backbone provider broke a peering agreement with a less-major, but not small provider and caused serious disruption across the Internet, maybe something can be found in that context.. I like this very old presentation that gives a clue as to the relationship between a Peering agreement and a "Commercial Interconnect agreement".. not sure it qualifies as a reliable source though. This one is an interesting report about the development of interconnect agreements in the context of the Internet (circa 1992). --Versa geek 20:08, 5 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
