Anybody use the data that is available for peering at exchange points? Its roughly the same idea and there is periodic verification that the data is current.
Here's an idea, I'm not sure if it could work.
Set up a small "verification company" (or maybe even non-profit org). For a small fee ($50/month?) you could have your contact information entered, and the company would randomly check it frequently (once every 2-3 weeks?). Failure to have current contact info would result in a penalty ($5000?) to stay in the program.
Then, networks could require as part of peering agreements and such that both sides participate. For their $50/month each side knows the verification company has current contact info, and they can get it from the company via web sites or monthly news letters.
It's a very rough idea, but is there a business model and support for such a thing? -- Leo Bicknell - bicknell@dimension.net Network Engineer (CCIE #3440) - Dimension Enterprises 1-703-709-7500, fax, 1-703-709-7699
