I disagree. LDAP is a widespread technology and RPSL/IRRD/RADB is not. The registries can hire people with LDAP experience or send people on LDAP training courses. They can get advice and support from LDAP consultants. And if the registries tell their staff to learn LDAP, then the staff will be motivated to do it well since LDAP knowledge is a marketable skill.
Besides LDAP, there's also SOAP / XML thingie :) All of that is pretty much trivial, and horribly overengineered (admittedly, not as horribly as X.500 or whatever that kludge was called). If a method of serializing tree-like data structures and performing request-reply protocol requires consultants to support, one may safely assume that there's something seriously wrong. To my ears "LDAP expert" sounds too much like "operator if-then-else expert". In any case, there's a bunch of public-domain thingies around which do LDAP or SOAP, so just pick any. --vadim
