Is there anywhere that this is recorded? It would be interesting to see
what the actual state of play on implementation of BCP38 was.

We've asked other tier-1's about BCP38 and were completely underwhelmed by
the response. If you believe in the BCPs then I guess you just have to
vote with your feet and try to use transit providers which comply with
them.
We've been trying to get transit from AT&T in London for a while now, but
they're obviously spending all their efforts on blocking RFC1918 traffic
rather than talking to prospective customers. :-S
