Yes, but if one or the other has backup peering, it would not look like that. It would look like _3561_.*_174_ or _174_.*_3561_ - prolly the former since AS3561 gives route-views a feed, but AS714 does not.
Looking in route-views for those two patterns, I see only a few routes under 3561.*_174_, probably leakage. There are no routes of the form _174_.*_3561_.
Ah ... me and my half-assed regular expressions. Thanks for the clean-up work, Patrick. The most recent showdown I can relate this to is Time Warner turning off ABC over contract disputes. The odd thing about that was that ABC seemed to get more of the public opinion blame than TW did ... is it possible that PSI's distressed financial state will affect public perception of who is at fault? Either way, I wouldn't expect CW to turn anything back on until they get enough customer complaints that they can't hold out any longer ... this is certainly not the cleanest way to settle a contract dispute, and should serve as a stark warning to anyone considering CW for transit. -travis
