6Bone Folk,

We (BIGLOBE,Japanese ISP provided NEC, AS2518) have migrated
from 2001:260::/35 to 2001:260::/32.

We stopped announcement of 2001:260::/35 on Oct 22, 2002.
However, junk routes are still floadting from Jun 10 (Maybe).

On Jun 10, We got a report from ISP conneced japanese internet
exchange(called NSPIXP6)that it is possible to hear via around
3257, 6762, 3263, 6939 and/or 4716.

So, As temporary handing, We started announcement of
2001:260::/35 on Jun 10, 2003. (time is 20:37 JST<GST+9>)
but still unstable.

Now, We stopped announce of 2001:260::/35 again.

So, could you check
  (1) if you see 2001:260::/35, filter them out.
  (2) if you see 2001:260::/35 from someone other than AS2518,
      please report to ix@mesh.ad.jp
  (3) if you are AS contact for the above ASes (3257, 6762,
      3263, 6939, 4716) check if your router is behaving
      correctly.
