There are exceptions for the > "belong to same AS", can we perhaps try to state those? The IANA new gTLD testing requires that the servers not all be in the same "origin AS". IMHO, this requirement is wrong. What matters more is that they don't all have the same AS path. That's a separate issue from being physically co-located on the same LAN, but you can't readily tell that from routing views. At the moment it's possible to have a perfectly well designed Anycast cloud with multiple sites and yet fail the IANA checks because the sites all use the same stub ASN.
