Hi Benoit,

A minor correction:

<quote>
AS. This community indicates the AS from which a route was learned. This is
different 
from the Type of Peer type as it does not give any information on the type
of route. 
For instance, for AS8938, all routes learned from TeleGlobe are tagged with
8938:2100.

is not the case in AS6453 (Teleglobe). Out of curiosity, how did you source
that info?

mh (AS6453)

> During the past years, we have seen an increasing usage of

> Based on this taxonomy, we tried to collect as much as

> task as we mainly relied on public database, such as whois 
> server and ISP web sites.
> 
> Our current database of classified BGP communities currently 
> contains more than 27,000 entries.
> 
> As researchers, we are now in the process of writing a paper 
> on our work on BGP communities.
> 
> We plan to submit this paper to ACM SIGCOMM Computer 
> Communication Review for the April issue.  This is an 
> editorial paper (max. 4 pages).

> You can find a preprint of the paper at the following URL:
