Grep for RIPE.

The IANA list will tell you which ranges were assigned to which RIR; you'll
have to query the RIR via WHOIS to determine registrant.

The IANA allocates number resources to the Regional Internet Registries, who
in turn allocate to registrants in their region.

See http://www.iana.org and http://www.nro.net for more information.

[OOT]a way to gather AS numbers ?

Hi misc,

I was wondering if there is a way to collect all of the european AS numbers ?
I took a look at the RIPE website, and I found nothing close to what I
want to do.
whois(1) was not of much help either.

The ultimate goal is to have a list of all the AS running free
software for their routers, as I'll soon be on the look for a job
(well, it's a heuristic like another one !)

I'm not really familiar with the mechanisms that make the internet
tick, so if I missed a clue, or am just being awfully rude, feel free
to lart me.
