IIJ IRR server has been registered our information only. Therefore,
we don't change every other day of the week.
And now, I believe that we should consider mirroring topology.
The first step of this issue is that top level of IRR servers
such as APIRR, RIPE and RADB or ARIN mirror with each other, and
distribute each information.
Next step could be a special case in AP region. AP region have
some NIRs, and every NIRs has done whois service.
I think that APIRR should consider how to mirror with NIR's databases,
how to authorize a registration from NIR's databases.
Do you have any plans or considerations?
