That precludes agreement on a definition of "failure". In recent 
weeks we have once again learned that a large fuzzy fringe around 
any sort of 100% consensus makes life interesting.

For instance; was the withdrawal of certain routes from your BGP 
sessions a "failure" for you? Was it for superwebhostingforfree.com, 
who relies on a single provider for transit?
