My experience is possibly somewhat limited, I made the statement based
on :

1) the default ACLs and route filters for the rather large ISP I used to
work for. Unfortunately I don't get a chance to work in the core of that
network, so I'm making a judgement on what was supposed to be the
practice rather than reality.

2) I logged into router-server.cerf.net, couldn't find any network 10/8
in the bgp and route tables, looked at their incoming BGP route filters,
they weren't filtering for it, so their upstream ASs looked to be
filtering it.

I was mostly wondering if people were over estimating the occurance of
RFC1918 route leaks, purely because "they stick out like a saw thumb".

With the RFC1918 leaks you see, do they disappear pretty quickly after
they appear, indicating somebody took action to stop the leak ? It would
also be interesting to see if the origin AS of these RFC1918 leaks is
one of the private ones.

ps, we can take this off-ML if people don't think it is relevant to
IPv6.

Mark.
