[members-discuss] My Question To All LIR Members

Hi All,

I have to agree with Jared to some degree.
It's been months since I updated the geolocation attribute in the RIPE db, but maxmind is still distributing a totally irrelevant location info.

Regards

Sinan

Hi Jared,

What do you mean exactly?
MaxMind != RIR

MaxMind is only a company who sell geolocation services based on IP Address.
Being member of a RIR is a completely different thing.

Also, whats wrong on the maxmind geo database?

I have updated several IP blocks on Ripe Database and maxmind updated it.

Best Regards,
