I agree, ultimately doesn't belong in the RIPE database. However I'd like to ensure there is a comprehensive path towardst that goal. I can think of a number of steps to get there. - mark out-of-region objects as being out-of-region - present warnings to the user when out-of-region objects are created - block inserting new out-of-region objects - try to reach out to stakeholders of out-of-region route objects - delete objects which also exist in other databases - delete objects which are not visible in the DFZ - ... It'll be a lengthy road, but it can be done. Kind regards, Job
