An interesting proposal, but merging an external data set with RIPE Database arises some questions:
- RIPE Database is set up to contain hierarchical data already. With this proposal, we would take some of this data outside the database in a manner that does not guarantee consistency with the database itself.
I don't think that is what is happening, this is more analogous to "abuse-mailbox:". The value contains an email address (which is an entrypoint outside the database, and interacting with the entrypoint is outside the scope of this working group). The "geofeed:" attribute is a pointer to elsewhere, and what a data consumer wants to do with that information is up to them. Kind regards, Job
