They stopped because parnet has chosen "best practise/rfc guidelines"
routing and hence are not routing internal/rfc1918 IP address outside of
their network. It appears to have been done as part of the parnet upgrades
going on and won't change.

Although some of parnet's own internal WAIX IPs still seem to route route
in and out. ;)

Central-Data (who offer unlimitted WAIX-only colocation) seem to have
fixed this problem by taking a subnet of live IPs, advertising it only to
WAIX and ACLing it from coming in their transit links (in case of leaks).

PD
