good stuff.  though you know how much i like centralization :)

of course you have seen the centralized rpki.net measurements presented
by rob at iepg 
   http://iepg.org/2012-03-ietf83/a-few-months-in-the-life-of-an-rpki-validator.pdf
and the measurements of an experiment using bit torrent instead of rsync
   http://iepg.org/2012-03-ietf83/rpki-bittorrent-experiment.pdf
and sidr/paris.  oops, good luck finding it, and he was cut short anyway
due to the meeting's tech fiasco.

but that is centralized.  and, if you would care to publish your
collection protocol, we would look at having the rpki.net relying party
software shove data down it.  but no promises.

but we're more focused on giving the *user* the tools to measure and
see.  so you may want to look at the tables and graphs (graphs more
germane to this discussion) from the rpki.net relying party software at,
for example,
   http://www.hactrn.net/opaque/rcynic/index.html

suggestions for improvement solicited, of course.
