That is RIPE NCC and Telstra.
Well, I'm surprised that it's not Worldom/MCI/UUnet.... We left them a few years back because they wouldn't aggregate our slowly built up /23 and /24 blocks into a new bigger chunk. We joined together with a couple of other small regional ISPs to qualify for a /19, and get out of under their thumbs. Alone, we barely fill 5 dialup /24s, now working on our 6th. Their salescritter (trying to sell us diverse T1s) told my partner the other day that routing our separate /24s would not be a problem, and to apply to ARIN for a separate ASN. (Bill holds his head in hands and weeps.) So, somebody needs to rein in the sales staff! I beg of you bigger fish, be ruthless in filtering out the small fry. It's the only motivator for cooperation.
