[db-wg] Suggestion of change for inverse query of notify

Hi Fredrik,

just to make sure that the behaviour - and thus the problem - is:

when inverse searching for that notify: attribute value, the whois software
does pick up the inetnum:, due to the notify: attribute in the maintainer,
but not the route:, although it is equally covered by that same maintainer.
Correct?

If that's the case then I guess you stumbled over bug (or weird interaction
or side-effect of using an object type list :-) )

Regards,
Wilfried.
