Thanks for the note. I just checked the form again, and it should be possible to view, fill out, and submit it without a Google account.</div>

<div class="x_elementToProof">Hi AfNOG,</div>
<div class="x_elementToProof">We are circulating a short survey on the operational use of BGP communities across several network-operator communities and would appreciate input from operators in Africa.</div>
<div class="x_elementToProof">The survey has five main questions:</div>
<div class="x_elementToProof"><a href="https://forms.gle/uEc9PhBH3CrLqRu19" target="_new" id="OWAb782f96e-3fe3-130b-f86f-a16ee479927f" class="x_decorated-link x_OWAAutoLink x_moz-txt-link-freetext" rel="noopener" data-start="363" data-end="398">https://forms.gle/uEc9PhBH3CrLqRu19</a></div>
<div class="x_elementToProof">The questions focus on aspects of BGP community usage that are difficult to infer from public BGP measurements or documentation. The survey should take about 2–3 minutes. You do not need to be a BGP communities expert, and we are
also interested in networks that make little or no use of communities.</div>
<div class="x_elementToProof">The responses will be used in aggregate to complement discussions at the
<i>Communities in the Wild</i> workshop, co-located with ACM IMC 2026:</div>
