To be honest, we also already announce it to our transit, but tagged 
with communities that limit its global visibility. If there's ever any 
problem due to that, we'll just limit it further.

If you are going to announce it to your transits, I'd like to hear about 
the developments. We might be interested in sharing the global load as well.

The biggest reason I haven't wanted to announce the route to our 
transit's transits is that I fear I might be dragging some Australian, 
Peruvian, South African and Swiss traffic to Finland and I'm not sure if 
that's better than the status quo. If I knew that we would only catch 
tier1 traffic from near by, I might go ahead and do it.

Cheers,
