Hi Paul, Rodolfo,
I've not misunderstood your suggestion, but as said Rodolfo asused (and
web-asused too) was removed (since 11/19/2012¹) and replaced by IP-analyser².
The problem is that IP-analyser require a RIPE-NCC account attached to a LIR
whereas asused not (because it uses directly whois query). And IP-analyser API³
require also a authentication token…
But this use-case is shared only by ±30⁴ other persons :-)
Therefore we do anything with this package? RoQA anyway?
Thanks,
Seb
