No... we're going to mandate OID-style router names
for the world's Internet providers:
<isoc-tree>.<internet-infrastructure branch>.
<iso country code>.<city ordinal>.<provider #>.
<facility #>.<rack #>.<shelf #>.<router ordinal>
Great fun to watch (it could be happening this way
in the alternate universe next door.)
