First, let me say that traceroute.org is a wonderful site.  I have no 
desire to pull all of it into wiki format.  All I am interested in are 
the looking glasses and route servers.  Since there are only a few 
hundred of these, I'll still be able to hand check them every few weeks.
Also, being a wiki, users will be able to update the entries themselves.

Thanks for all the hard work you to on traceroute.org.  I really 
appreciate and use it a lot.
