...

From what I can see personally, all BGP sessions with Ebone at major peering points in Europe went down in the last two hours, and all their customer interfaces appear to be shut (or in the process of being shut down). SDH and DWDM customer circuits are also being torn down as we speak.

Hmmm.... Try a traceroute from inside the Ebone IP network at http://www.ebone.net. A few minutes ago it was still working.

Have you got any confirmation that they are, in fact, shutting down the DWDM equipment? This would leave everyone in the dark except for IRU customers...
