You misread my message (but this is probably my fault as well, since I
wasn't clear enough). So, let me try again. What I suggested is that if
a site has a contiguous block of network numbers (such that this block
could be reduced to a small number of IP address prefixes), then this
site should be announced to the Internet as just the prefixes, rather
than a set of individual network numbers.

Yakov.
