I was referring to the "Afrinic IRR Homing Project" and how it could fit this model. RIPE NCC and Afrinic were asked to work on a proposal for this. We will present it during the DB WG session at the RIPE Meeting (next week), and I believe it's best to discuss this in more detail then. But to be absolutely clear: we would only implement after working group discussion and consensus called by the chairs. The same applies obviously for other proposals and suggestions mentioned in this thread. Kind regards, Tim Bruijnzeels Assistant Manager Software Engineering RIPE NCC Database Group
