I am a little uneasy with our use of the term "peering", because I
think we run the risk of implying something about settlements we don't
mean. There is a big chunk of the BGP crowd that still thinks of
peering as meaning "traffic exchange without settlement". I think we
want to talk about CDN traffic exchange and interworking, but I don't
think we want to imply "without settlement".

I don't want to start a big "rethink the name" effort, but I think it
may be something that we should cover early in the BOF, just to
eliminate any peering vs. transit discussions.
