The Planet Multicast project at NLANR is also trying to obtain geographic positions. They have a small database of (mainly US and Mbone) cites vs. position records. I started a (very small) database of ip address to city records, plus for localised companies in .com, .org one can ask InterNIC. Many non-US countries are small enough that they only have one timezone, and a blob on a world map is not so far off (only hundreds of km, maybe, not thousands).
