Dear Geoff;

   I just noticed the remarkable flattening in the recent growth of the BGP table
in your BGP graphs at :
http://www.telstra.net/ops/bgp/index.html

It didn't even seem this striking at Minneapolis.

Is this cessation of growth real ? Is this a sign of the recent economic slow-down,
or is there some more technical explanation (such as more aggressive aggregation at Telstra)?
