I just wanted to let everyone know that Google's maintenance is complete, and traffic will be returning to normal shortly. Originally the upgrade was not going to support IPv6, however extra effort was put into the upgrade so that IPv6 is supported immediately. Some members may have read that Google's peering policy does not allow bi-lateral peering, however that is not the case with their connection to MICE. MICE members can request to bi-laterally peer with them. If for some reason you are having an issue getting peering@google.com to setup a bi-lateral BGP session, shoot me an off list email, and I can get you in touch with people that are familiar with the differences in their MICE connection.
