I was obviously unclear, so let me try again. 1. This link was not posted *in advance*. The reason I proposed in advance is partially so that we could get review and feedback such as Wilfried's, and prevent future issues. 2. It was not sent to any of the RIPE mailing lists until after problems were reported. RIPE Labs is cool, but AFAIK the RIPE community still lives & breathes in the RIPE working group mailing lists. 3. There is apparently neither a procedure nor a policy concerning notification of experiments. Cheers, -- Shane
