The RA services at MAE-West were never declared production because we did not have two operational RSes deployed there. The RSes at the other NAPs that have been declared for production were able to sustain a single-machine failure without loss of service.
Let me see if I correctly understand this. The RA services at MAE-West were never declared operational, yet there are service & transit providers using them for production services? If so, this will still be interpreted as a black eye for the RSs. - paul

You're right. Technically the fault was with us (we who let our production peerage depend on nonproduction devices in the middle). But the eye most blackened by this week's events will be, undeservedly, the RA's. My own view is: good idea, bad execution in this instance. We're fixing it.
