Hi folks,

Wondering if there is a good repository of information somewhere which
outlines the various major ISPs routing policies such as default
local-pref treatment for customers vs. peers, handling of MED, allowed
prefix-lengths from customers, etc. or would one have to contact each
ISP one was a customer of to ascertain this information.

Thanks in advance.

I'm a bit late on that, but I'd tend to think this is commonly done on
their RIR aut-num object.
This should at least be true for Major Bandwidth providers.

Thanks in advance.

In the RIPE region it might be reasonable to use the word "commonly".
I think it's fair to say that elsewhere a more correct phrase might be
"almost never".
