Tony,

There is no intention to remove anything if the connection is down for
a short period of time.  If a route is not seen (the connection is
down?) for 3 month continuously, then I think marking it as withdrawn
is a safe move.  If wee miss a route the first day their service is
turned up, because they were down, we'll get them the next day.
I don't see why this would be a problem.
