This was my suggestion in a nutshell. I believe the most commonly observed bogon list is maintained by Rob Thomas (http://www.cymru.com/Documents/bogon-list.html). [SNIP] Maybe we can have an official filter-set object so people don't have to update these info manually.
This sounds like an excellent idea.
In the IANA assigned RIR range, we still need RIRs to tell us what range under their authority are not allocated yet thus should be filtered.
Yes, this information should be well publicised though so that people can build bogon filters around it. RIPE (and sometimes ARIN) announce to NANOG when they start allocating from a new /8, I've yet to see APNIC do so. I've also yet to see any of the RIRs producing a definitive list of space assigned to them which is not yet allocated. Maybe I'm not looking in the right place? C.
