It occurs to me that operators might want to opt-in to have their data  
published through PeeringDB.  From a purely pragmatic standpoint, I wonâ??t  
peer with anyone I canâ??t reach out to and if you donâ??t have a 24/7 NOC  
chances are good that youâ??re going to get depeered the first time thereâ??s a  
technical issue and I canâ??t reach you for help.

An academic exercise, for sure.   But one that would render this line of  
thinking rather moot.
