Tracking the future today! I'm quite sure that DIGEX doesn't care a hoot whether they meet netrail's peering requirements. Even more so for ANS, MCI, Sprint, BBN, UUNET, PSI, Netcom, and some others I can think of. In fact, it doesn't appear that you're peering with them now, and until a few weeks ago you were only at MAE-East, while they were also at MAE-West and Pennsauken.
