There is no change to the list.  Cogent still does not have transit.  Cogent sees CT through Sprint (a peer) because CT 
pays Sprint for transit.

OTOH, Jim did say in his blog post: "This disconnection will increase China Telecom's transit costs...."  This assumes 
facts not in evidence, namely that the CT <-> Sprint pipes were not full before the de-peering incident.
