Seems to be both on-topic, and timely, given the start of NANOG62 is tomorrow (or today for some).

As I mentioned elsewhere, if the FCC asked both companies to provide info and both companies did not provide the info, 
delaying the merger 180 days is actually a pretty minor penalty. When I don't give the gov't what they want, I usually 
get a far harsher punishment than "no problem, we'll give you more time".
