Hi Jeroen!
Only problem here is that in the non rwhois databases there is no defacto 'referal' method. At least as far as I know of except for a 'remarks:' field. If somebody can hint me where to find it I would be pleased.
Interesting line of thought! In fact there _is_ a referral mechanism - for domain lookups, but not for address lookups. Depending on what the result of this discussion is, we could investigate the merits of a referral mechanism for inet6nums, too. Nevertheless I'd strongly suggest to keep the (minimal) required documentation of resources in the central database, instead of going down the route of rwhois (or the like). Wilfried.
