I'll DM you the sheet. It's too wide to paste cleanly.

Quick preview of the Toronto data: three providers, all quoted 8-10 weeks, actuals were 14, 19, and 26 weeks. The 26-week one had a "force majeure" clause they invoked for "supply chain constraints" that somehow didn't affect their hyperscale hall.

The Ontario crypto registration talk is real. I've added a column for jurisdictional risk. It's crude -- 1-3 scale -- but better than nothing.

RIPE allocation, been holding it since 2014

That'll help with the IX filters. Legacy holders get less scrutiny than the new /48 crowd.

Re: the generator sync -- 47 seconds is outside IEEE 1547 for most interconnection agreements. If you're in a multi-tenant facility, that affects everyone on the bus. I'd file a ticket even if it's "not your problem." It becomes your problem when the UPS batteries hit end-of-discharge.

Their Amsterdam queue has been honest for me too, but their remote hands pricing crept up 40% in two years. Watch the MSA renewal.

iBGP, eBGP, don't care, just peer

Done. Written, not verbal. The ops manager rang me within the hour -- not to fix it, to ask how I knew the sync time. I told him I measured it. He asked with what. I told him a Fluke 435. He didn't know what that was.

We'll see if anything changes before the next monthly test. I'm not optimistic.

Thanks for the RIPE tip. The ROA validated this morning, so we're at least clean on the routing side. Now I just need the feeds to stay live longer than the marriage.
