Re: ROA mirror to IRR?

TC(bgp.net.br) is using IRRd 4.2, which has an RPKI pseudo-source with
exactly that. ROAs are downloaded from NTT. You can see how they look
like at:
https://bgp.net.br/whois/?q=-s%20RPKI%20200.160.0.0/20

But this is not used to create route(6) objects in the TC source, only
to invalidate route(6) objects that users create at TC. Mirrored IRRs
like RADB are not subject to RPKI validation, only to scope filter
(private IP addresses, private ASNs).

Curious if any IRR databases are mirroring/importing ROA data - creating
route|6 objects from ROA?

LACNIC requires a route object to be created when creating a ROA.
APNIC you create a route object, then may generate a ROA during that
process.
Other RIR's, curious if anything tries to bring the two together?

Applicable for networks that only use IRR data (do not yet validate RPKI),
they could benefit.

IRR questions:
How do most large networks maintain (automate) their IRR records?
Is it standard practice to accept more specifics (append IPv4 "le /24" and
IPv6 "le /48")?
 Or is it expected to have one IRR route per BGP announcement?
