RE: Open letter to Level3 concerning the global routing issues on June 12th

[Evan Moore <emoore () sover net>]

While this is all true, and I'm always willing to forgive honest errors accompanied by sincere admissions, my recent 
Level 3 experience (beginning prior to the 12th) has strongly biased me toward the third option Niels meant: serious 
lack of clue.  I've had multiple tickets open over several weeks inquiring why Level 3 is announcing several /24s out 
of 8/8 to peers, and I keep getting told it's my fault.  Supposedly my tickets have gone upstream to higher levels, but 
nothing changes and the answers I get are wrong.

If anyone with clue at Level 3 would like to redeem my faith, please get in touch.

There are lots of options from failure to follow procedure to software defect amongst others. We are all human, except 
for my coworker the Troy-bot-3000. Even well intentioned and motivated people have bad things happen to them. 

What I look for in these incidents is what can be learned and improved upon. 

If you are motivated about the routing manifesto please join the mailing list. 

Thanks,
