There exist RIPE and other data bases - yes. They does have route objects. But this objects are (usially) oriented to the As path filtering, not more. Who really builds filter lists for the networks via data bases? I know about MCI (and their DB); our provider EUnet build this list by hands (exactly Peer Bilse's hands -:)); no one of scientific networks there does more than AS-path filtering.
Small correction. The current EuropaNET/INCS service is run by BT and they definitely create network filters based on the RIPE DB, on top of AS path filters. Cheers, Steven
