I missed this LL blogpost, for some reason (it's from 28 October), but it's great news:

"I’m happy to report that we have an approved plan to move away from VPN reliance. We’ve finalized a design and chosen facility and equipment partners to build and deploy a private fiber optic ring to interconnect our datacenters. “LLnet” will be the designation of our private network and we have established an aggressive timeframe to activate it. I’m pushing hard to bring LLnet online by the end of this year (’08), and begin a phased migration off of the VPN’s immediately after. Given the amount of traffic to move, I would estimate completion of this project by February or March of ‘09 at the latest. So we have a light at the end of the tunnel on one of our biggest stability issues."

Could you please explain what this is about in words a 11 year old could understand? I read it and felt my hair part as it zipped overhead...

Well, I'd say a "private fiber optic ring to interconnect our datacenters" = a fat pipe making SL faster and more reliable in its data retrieval.
