Obviously there is the AS info at the internic, plus various
registration entries for various networks in the various RRs.
One thing that those of us interested (sean@dra,loco/jonh@isi,etc...)
in inter-provider communication have asked for is a common place
to air connectivity and routing problems. Craig Labovitz@Merit is
doing a darned good job of making this a reality. Another thing
we've asked for is a more real time updated contact list.
However, having just left a company where I was the contact for
most all routing, I don't see an easy way for my name to be swept
away.
So, the answer to your question is not really, but it would be
nice if there was a more highly utilized central authority for
such things.
I liked what chris@nap.net said about self regulation and all. I
trust the political types take it to heart.
