Discussed on list, presented in tutorials, how much more advice is
actually required? ;-)

Several have replied saying "don't ever do this". The I in IGP stands
for "interior" - which means "inside" your network, which does not mean
"outside" your network. For the latter, we have BGP - if BGP for some
reason seems too hard, check out the NANOG tutorials on the subject.
Good luck!
