Jared, Avi Freedman <freedman@netaxs.com> had begun work on an aggregate
evaluator some time back. A quick look at http://www.routes.netaxs.com/
shows it has not seen new work since April of 1996. I think your idea
is very worthwhile - perhaps Avi can share some of his experiences with
you.Best regards,

Some people objected to regular posting of the info, as the aggregator
tool has no way of knowing whether there are reasons for specific
announcements - and people are afraid that poor aggregation results will
make them look "bad".
The tool is a bunch of grungy c-that-used-to-be-perl code, so I'd be
ashamed to release it, but we might start running it regularly if there's
interest.
