This might (indeed) be an excellent document for a BCOP.  If you are in
the opportunity to attend the RIPE meeting, you might consider to start
working on a BCOP document for (basic) filtering.

This can be part of another, more broad defined document on BGP
configuration, or more specific on customer peer-group filtering.

Please let us know what you think.

Best,
