On a related matter, is it possible currently to setup my aut-num that if 
anyone adds my autnum to their import/export/as-set objects I would receive 
a notification about it?  Currently the "notify" field only informs me of 
changes to the specific aut-num, not people who reference my aut-num w/o my 
permission?

If  this is not feasible with the system today, would it be possible to add 
this feature?  I'll explain the rationale: we have recently discovered that 
hostile aut-num's that intend to perform a BGP hijack, will add the victims 
aut-num to their routing policy or to their unsuspecting upstream.  This 
policy is then picked up as legitimate and propogated.  By having a 
"notify-on-policy" email address field, I would be able to quickly see who 
is planning on hijacking my IP ranges.

Comments?

Thanks,
