Funny enough, we've been looking at moving from 174 to HE for a large
amount of traffic, and this discussion is making the decision *a lot*
easier.

You are publishing AAAA records for www.cogentco.com, which means
that I CANNOT reach it to even look at your looking glass.  I send my
prefixes to 4436, 22822, and 6939 and you are not peering with any of
them.  Why not peer, for FREE, with 6939?  What could you possibly
gain from NOT doing this?  HE is NOT going to buy transit from you
(nor am I).  Please fix your policy.


May I suggest to vote with your feet and take your business somewhere
else. They obviously are not interested in you, your traffic or your
money.

Already done.  All they are doing is continuing to provide fodder for
engineers to tell their bosses why to NOT consider 174 transit when it's
brought up.
