Hey folk, Martijn Schmidt said.
They're also working on getting the format standardised in the IETF. I
applaud this, because less badly guessed geoip data and more reliably
self-published data is better:

Just a quick note that this document is being advanced for publication as an Independent Stream [1] RFC. That means it is not getting IETF review or consensus and will not be an IETF RFC or any kind of standard. It is important to recognise that not all RFCs are IETF RFCs. Publication on the Independent Stream is a way to produce RFCs that describe proprietary protocols, provide commentary on IETF work, or offer contrary opinions. While the Independent Stream RFCs are held to the same editorial standards as other RFCs, their technical content is not subject to the same level of scrutiny. Reviews of drafts on the Independent Stream are always welcome. You can send comments and thoughts direct to the authors or to me as Independent Submissions Editor via rfc-ise@rfc-editor.org <mailto:rfc-ise@rfc-editor.org> .
