I think it will be more helpful if someone gave the exact details of the problems he/she is having regarding the KIXP. Eg. I am connected to provider X, and when I try to access content hosted by provider Y locally, it goes via the international route, and here are the traceroute/ping statistics. That way, it will be quite easy to pinpoint the problem and advise the affected member.

At every forum I have attended, the KIXP folk have made it a point to
bring up the licensing issue.

You can't peer with KIXP, you peer with others at KIXP.

IIUC, if you get a Content Providers license, then you can join the
peering mesh.
