While building the anycast infrasctructure is quite easy as long as you have the ASN and IP blocks, getting it deployed is anything but trivial... and the problems are _not_ technical. It is not just logistics: getting the anycast blocks routed and announced properly (remember, most of those will be global nodes, not reduced-visibility nodes!) is a very large annoyance.
