An open source BGP optimization tool would be nice.

Not required, but typically going along with full routes is access to

So much for the people who believe taking full BGP routes will
automatically choose the best routes. (Why does "best routes" sound
like something Trump would say?)

They're fubar for the last 3 days for different reasons. Today it's a
(another?) fiber cut in LA. Had to pull routes away from Charter to
get traffic away from Cogent.
