Hi everyone out there in rtma-land,

I think it's time I try again to get you all involved.  I'd like to
come up with a list of agenda topics and perhaps meet as a working group
at the next ARIN meeting.  So far some topics I can think of are:

ways to summarize the routing table info:
   a) discuss Scott Marcus's info on AS number depletion
      (perhaps compare it to Geoff Huston's data presented
       last week at the APNIC meeting)
   b) how do assigned ASNs compare to the ones showing up 
      in the routing table?
   c) how many prefixes are being assigned per ASN?
   d) perhaps compare registered prefixes and length to 
      advertisements.  For example how many advertisements
      are generated for each assigned prefix?
   e) perhaps query experts on when the existing network 
      equipment will no longer be able to handle the size of
      the routing table (not just # of prefixes but number of
      paths, not just amount of memory required, but what happens
      if there are flaps)

Any other thoughts?  What info should we be gathering? (if any)

Thanks for your help!
