	Randy,

	Its the Cisco 'sh ip bgp' format RIBs that we're planning
	to end-of-life, not the MRT format RIBs. Is that still a
	problem? In addition, we're looking at whether we can
	generate the 'sh ip bgp' format RIBs from the MRT format
	RIBs in the event someone has tools that take that format
	as input. 

	One important issue is that rv2.routeviews.org (where
	many of the MRT format RIBs are generated) has a
	different peer set than route-views.routeviews.org (where
	the 'sh ip bgp' RIBs come from).  I'm working on trying
	to regularize those now.

	In any event, please let me know if the end-of-life of
	the 'sh ip bgp' format RIBs is a problem.

	Thanks,

	Dave
