However, because rlc isn't able The RIPE NCC is mirroring the RADB database. It's available in: ftp://ftp.ripe.net/ripe/dbase/others/radb.db.gz It is easy to split the file in separate files for every type of object with a small perl script. > It's an interesting question which should be discussed by the RIPE-DB > working group !

One could uniquify the name by adding the registry name as defined in the 'source:' attribute of the database objects. I think this might be an interesting topic to be discussed during the RIPE db-wg session, Kind regards, David Kessens
