riswhois user suggestion, comments please
Hi, There's been no follow up on the ris-users list, no others stating they'd also like to see this, so I'm wondering what our internal point of view is. Do we want to report the maximum visibility, the maximum of all "num-rispeers:" values? If yes, would we want that in the comment lines of every query? Or only report it in the output of a special query, like '-q sources'? Although I haven't looked at the code for this particular request, my feeling is the max(num_peers) is relatively easy to extract from the data by a simple walk through the prefix tree. -- Rene ------- Forwarded Message From: Andrzej Adam Filip <anfi@poczta.onet.pl> To: ris-users@ripe.net Subject: Re: riswhois: reporting total number of ris-peers Date: Mon, 01 Aug 2005 15:03:20 +0200 [...] Current format of data in riswhoisdump.IPv4.gz and riswhoisdump.IPv6.gz is as follows: % Format: <origin> <tab> <prefix> <tab> <seen by #rispeers> I would like riswhois report (somewhere in the header comments) maximum value of "seen by #rispeers" ("num-rispeers:" in riwhois terminology) in current data set.

I think it would be nice to get briefly in the comment lines. If you know the optin -q, then you miss that info. BTW, I do not remember which e-mail exchange, but it would be nice also have the list of all peers on one page. I will add this into RIS ToDo list.

I guess peer tree, rather prefix. Arife.
