Hmm, sounds like a debate panel (similar to what's planned for a multihoming
thing) would be in order, since there's dissention about where it's possible
or desirable to implement the filtering.

The key thing is a 5-minute exhortation to make available to customers
or certain key groups (like CERT) a clueful-24-hour-contact # from each
major provider...
