FYI, there are reports of a major cw.net fiber cut in Australia, with
multiple ISPs affected. Side-effects are said to include major degradation
of the PSTN, Sydney stock-exchange slowdowns, and cash-machine issues.
No precise details or ETR known at this time, nor data concerning North
American/trans-Pacific second-order effects, if any.
