I concur with this. Besides, from the pragmatic side of the "consumer", if it does solve a problem (albeit short or medium term) I don't care much if it's a "hack". Hint: all this bogon or related filtering is not a long-term solution. We need it now, but the long term solution is some kind of authentication that will allow only the rightful owner of a block to announce it. Michel.
