I tried to get a couple of messages to the list earlier, but I guess the
problems stop it.

Subject: Problems with UUNet backbone

Maybe this is unrelated, but myself and some other collegues I've contact
by phone just in the past few minutes have noticed some connectivity
problems with the Worldcom backbone.  Particularly, some routers on
152.63.131.0 seem to be down.  The result is I can't get to the root name
servers.  I've tried tracerouting to all 13 root name server and I
can only get to 3.  The traceroutes all die in the block I mentioned
about.  Anybody else noticing this?  Can anybody responsible for the IP block
confirm?
