We put the /22 route in on Monday on a temporary basis despite the
lack of a route object, but Sprint is not announcing it.  The /16 was
already configured (last April based on the date in the route object).

We are seeing a black hole at a CANET aggregate.  If Sprint would
announce the more specific /22 we would send the packet to Sprint
rather than to CANET by way of MCI.  Below is the registered aggregate
(with the list of holes removed).

route:       204.82.0.0/16
advisory:    AS690 1:3561(27)  2:3561(218) 3:3561(147) 4:3561(11)  5:3561(144)
descr:       NB-SCHOOLS

comm-list:   CANET_PROXY_AGGRS
mnt-by:      CANET-RC

Isn't this the form of aggregation without fully considering topology
that we discussed at NANOG.  Sprint need to announce something more
specific than /16 and they need to register it so others know if you
are further aggregating the /22 or something.

Thanks,
