There has been some thought on this which could double as a distributed IRR, esp. for those who have trouble getting to/through those centralized databases. A brief note on how this might be done may be found at: http://www.isi.edu/div7/people/bmanning.home/inet98.html if I might toot my own horn here. Note that this is similar to, but does not go quite as far as the presentation given at a recent NANOG mtg. --bill
