This is sort of off the subject, but the above sentence implies some strong global coordination between all NICs that issue NIC handles. What efforts are underway to involve NICs other than RIPE and InterNIC is this coordination?

You are perfectly welcome to join the SWIP project. Actually I would consider representing the region in global database exchanges as an important role of the AP-NIC. We have defined an exchange format which I am sure Mark is willing to send you the latest revision of. If you are using a RIPE-like database structure, Marten can provide some tools to convert from/to the exchange format which you can adapt to your local database. Daniel
