survey on BGP damping

Hi,

We are conducting a survey of BGP damping deployment and would greatly
appreciate if you could take a few minutes to answer the following
questions.  There are a number of interesting results and various
recommendations for damping settings.  However, we have found only limited
information on who does(does not) deploy damping and what parameter
settings are selected in practice.

If you are willing to participate, please send replies directly to us.
We will collect the results (removing any private information regarding
specific sites) and post the results to the list.  Thanks!
