Would seem like a more-worthy effort than forcing security into bgp...at least in the interim. If nothing else, it would seem like the route dbs solved a problem that should never have existed in the first place. Why isn't that totally integrated with network assignment? Why have multiple authorities? To me, the lack of true authority makes the radb and friends advisory bodies at best. What we really need is an authoritative body. Somebody who can say, without a doubt (and without having to pay an additional maintenance fee or maintain multiple objects with multiple routing arbiters), who should be allowed to announce which prefix.
