We got a new volunteer, Terry Baranski to help out with the load.

We just got Lucent to correct their announcements.  They had been announcing:
Network            Origin AS  Description
135.0.0.0/13         10455     Lucent Technologies
and with the help of Internap they have now fixed their announcement to 
comply  with what appears in ARIN.

If anyone can help out here - it would be appreciated.  We have been 
sending emails to anyone and everyone in AS568 since January - all of them 
generating not a single reply.

So if the US Military can hijack a few IPs, we will have a hard time 
convincing spammers and their shills to stop hijacking other available 
address space:

Network            Origin AS  Description
132.0.0.0/10           568     DISO-UNRRA
137.0.0.0/13           568     DISO-UNRRA
158.0.0.0/13           568     DISO-UNRRA
192.153.136.0/21       568     DISO-UNRRA
192.172.0.0/19         568     DISO-UNRRA

Obviously, there are some since we do see these announcements pop up here 
and there.
