Don't forget about the other half of the problem.  ISPs need to
verify the network announcements by their downstream BGP networks.
Eventually most of the current "bogons" will be assigned, and bogon
filters will continue to be less and less useful.  On the other hand,
positive verification will continue to improve the stability of the
network.
