This looks great!
I just have one small question, why did you choose to have it on apps.db.ripe.net instead of some more general RIPE (NCC) services documentation thing to have it all in one place?
We co-host the DB documentation with the DB application because they belong together (the documentation also linked from the left-hand menu of the application), and it's easier for the DB team to keep updated (we can deploy changes ourselves with the application).
I think it was RIS or Atlas that I saw that have this same style of docs so to me it would make some sense to collect it all in one easy to find place.
You are correct, the other applications do use the same relative location (/docs/) for consistency.
It is not like it matters much and this is still very good but I just know that earlier I have sometimes had a bit of a difficult time navigating to the documentation for various RIPE (NCC) services.
I will discuss internally how to make all RIPE NCC services documentation accessible from one place (and easier to find). The DB documentation will continue to be linked from "Database Support" on the main website: https://www.ripe.net/manage-ips-and-asns/db/support
Regardless, great job DB team!
