The following RIR IRR's are in use today: RIPE, APNIC, AfriNIC, ARIN. Three out of four apply a mechanism which ensures a high level of certainty that the route-objects covering the respective RIR's managed space are authenticated in a proper way. ARIN does not validate against their RIR database at this moment. LACNIC has no IRR. I do not agree with "most rir irr instances are unused".
