Presence and IntComm WG

All,

No one has chimed in yet to support or refute my suspicion that we
want addresses on the public authenticated net, not the speaker/demo
net.  We want to be close to users' machines, especially for room
weather pings, and we don't want to have to worry about routing
policies that make it difficult to "reach one side from the other".

In order to bind "pals.internet2.edu" appropriately, I need to know
what we are doing (and possibly need new addresses from Alan) by
Tuesday.

Cheers,

-- ben
