Ok, here are my last comments again (seens that last time they went directly to /dev/null). I won't accept a document which does not allow more than 1 update of an object per day. Laurent A few things i'd like to propose: - A route/AS name attribute. You currently use the first line of the 'desc' attribute to generate a name (with prtraceroute for instance). Having a separate name attribute can make the query of the server (whois or whatever) easier since it doesn't require any parsing. - Include the time (hour, min, second) in the "changed" attribute. This is in case of several changes in the same day. Proposed syntax (compatible with the older one): changed: <email> YYMMDD [hh:mm:ss] [+oo] If hh:mm:ss is missing we assume 00:00:00 +00 ??? +oo if the offset from GMT. (i know, we have to deal with the times zones :-) Laurent -- Laurent Joncheray, E-Mail: lpj@merit.edu Merit Network Inc, 1071 Beal Avenue, Phone: +1 (313) 936 2065 Ann Arbor, MI 48109, USA Fax: +1 (313) 747 3745 "This is the end, Beautiful friend.
