Hi again from Network World...

We're now looking into a story on how Egypt may have restored service -- did they bring up all routes at once? Stagger the re-introduction of routes so as not to overwhelm routers? Any specific ISPs brought up before others and why? ie, Noor and the stock exchange brought up before any others, etc.

Any thoughts from NANOG on how best -- or worst -- to restore Internet service following, reportedly, the largest government-mandated blackout ever? Also, are any of you in touch with any Egyptian ISPs and sharing this type of information? Or hearing any "war stories" from over there?

Thanks again, and best regards,
