When last I dealt with this matter (96), ANS happily listens to 
minor IRR policy stuff in a timely (hours?) fashion, but still
manually configured what they considered a "move" from AS to AS.
They appeared -at that time- to consider adding sessions to an AS
with which they have direct sessions a "move" and updating the
IRR was insufficeint.  I had hoped that went away with "advisory" 
lines.

Maybe someone at ANS would like to comment about the current
implementation?
