the /19 filter length was negotiated between registries and isps in
danvers as a cooperation. the extensions down to today's lengths
similarly, though thank the ghodesses not in danvers. i think it is
safe to assume that, given sufficient warning, if a micro-swamp was
created, folk would open a filter hole for it. after all, we did not
used to allow /24s.
