Please stop thinking in solutions, and start thinking in requirements.
I was answering your specific questions, but I see your point.
- No CLI, knowing of filenames or such things must be necessary
CLI offers this, you are not forced to use CLI to arrive at this. If you know you want to compare ripe-XXX and ripe-YYY, you have the file names. How could you compare two files without knowing their file names?
- A way must be provided for users to clone the RIPE document repository and perform the same analysis as the RIPE NCC offers on their own system
That is one of the pivotal points of my proposal. Please note the anonymous pull I explicitly mention in the proposal. When I say "CLI", I mean "CLI on your own computer on a fully offline clone of all data". -- Richard
