Not a bad idea, but the database is sometimes wrong. Examples:

Duplicates (shall not be possible, but there exist entries):
- 194.114.128.0 is listed in ru.zone and se.zone
- 151.0.0.0 is listed in it.zone and ee.zone

Wrong entries:
- 109.70.64.0 is listed in de.zone, but should be in nl.zone
- 116.202.0.0 is listed in de.zone, but should be in zz.zone (unlocated)

Made only a first, rough test of my personal entries.

Be cautious when playing with such things. :-)

Best regards,
	Klaus.
