Does anyone know what the story is with Cogent and L3? I noticed that my 
Cogent site (IN NY) is using a path to one of my providers (IN NJ) via
asia as opposed to the local and preferred L3 peer. After several days I
was finally told that L3 and Cogent are working through some peering
negotiations and cogent is moving traffic off their L3 peer in
anticipation of a depeering (I guess they are trying to avoid the whole
France Telecom thing that happend last time). Does anyone have a better
clue as to what is going on and where the negotiations stand?
