I can't help thinking that resource certification might help here - but
thats a "tomorrow" response rather than a "today" solution
(see page 23 of
http://www.potaroo.net/presentations/2006-10-12-certs.pdf) for this
concept of a digitally signed LOA)

The trouble with the AS112 project is that there's no actual connected
customer, and explaining that AS112 is special to transit providers
who haven't already heard of the concept can be a draining and
frequently unfulfilling exercise. I seem to think there's no actual
legal entity that carries the name "Root Server Technical Operations
Assn", and similarly no listed officers, letterhead, etc which makes
any LOA likely to be an exercise in photoshoppery and subterfuge.
Even if there were a blanket LOA letter, the issue still remains if
*everyone* who can technically annoucne a prefix in the global table is
entitled to run a global AS112 instance if they feel the urge to do so.
I suppose the answer is "no", and you're back to square one.
(The same issue arises with 6to4 and the 192.88.99.0/24 prefix, BTW.)
