[ irr data are pretty bad except for some islands where there is culture of maintining them. and, as it is a global internet, islands don't help much. europe and japan are two islands with better than the average irr data quality. and they have rpki rolling to varied degrees. ]
The day of reasonable accuracy of the IRR ended when UUnet bought ANI. Since ANI actually used the IRR to generate there router configs and ANI was pretty big, people were really forced to register. Curtis had a lot of excellent software that did all sorts of impressive stuff with the IRR, but I guess that all went into the bit bucket when UUnet took over. Very, very sad! -- R.
