	Sounds like what the IRR (is supposed to) deliver.
	Of course, you have to ask yourself... Is my data 
	correct in the IRR?

	And then a quick turn through ROE - the route object editor
	and RtConfig will allow anyone to crank out a correctly
	churned cisco config in seconds.  No need for an MLPA,
	No being out of control... with the minor exception that
	your intended peer has not entered thier peering policies
	into the IRR correctly.  Of course this can be checked
	with ROE.   

	Keeps the phone calls to adjacent peers routing geeks down
	to a managable level... :)
