[inet-ops] Anycast stability experiment results?

[Joe Provo]

By the way, has there been any initial data from the near-month of
data being collected by users of
   http://rip.psg.com/~randy/anycast_gatherer-1.4.tar.gz
...or where should we watch for more details, since presumably one
if not more locations of its announcement is not likely to be 
re-visited by the authors?

My opinion extends to presuming that networks with issues visible 
in off-net anycast are generally not deterministic in steady state
and fail the third need of goodput in the classic "paths must be 
short, fast and stable" troika.

Cheers,

Joe
