* Ask Bjørn Hansen:

Are there (a significant number of) providers that will filter a /24
announcement from an ARIN prefix not in the list of prefixes where
they allocate /24 blocks.

I've seen such filters applied to RIPE's /8s which actually led to
reachability problems because the shorter covering prefix was not
announced.  (Arguably, that's two failures.)
