As promised, Renesys has released a brief paper on the effects of
Hurricane Katrina as seen from the Internet. We cover the period of
land fall in some detail and also review the recovery efforts.

People who are interested should obviously read the report (and I'm
pretty sure it's on-topic, for once! This might be the second
on-topic thread today. Danger!). But highlights include:
--the Internet was fine
--the Gulf Coast wasn't
--Louisiana was hit particularly hard
--many outaged prefixes still haven't been restored, 10 days later
We're happy to take questions on the report, the data, the
methodology, etc.
