We sign and comply with mutual non-disclosure agreements that inhibit my ability to share that information with you.
This is not a technical issue.
I look forward to viewing your backhoe reports.

Though I have seen many articles, web pages, and other tables that detail which networks are 'peering,' I have never seen an accurate representation of this type of data from a third party.

I look forward to viewing the information about your network peering on your website or IRR or whatever method you decide to use.
