So, let's recap why no one uses them (as many have said already in the related thread): Laziness. The same laziness that results in the slew of other
things
many folks have pointed out not being addressed.

You forgot the other one - expense. AFAIK all of the registries have fees or require you to be a customer. If there is no operational value for me why would I want to spend the money? I realize most of you work for companies that consider a million dollars chump change but that is not the case everywhere. If you can give me a convincing reason to register my routes in a RADB I will - but at this point I have yet to see it. What does a RADB tell you about a non-transit network that you can't see from BGP and WHOIS? There is no more security in RADB than there is in our current method of notifying our peers of the netblocks we are announcing. Mark Radabaugh Amplex (419) 720-3635
