Dear colleagues,

Last month we looked at the completeness of the RIPE Routing registry 
(thanks to Rene Wilhelm):

The results were encouraging and as a next step we were curious to find 
out how accurate the data is compared to the prefixes announced in BGP:

It seems that the quality of the Routing Registry is not that bad. The 
match rate is very high: Most organisations register either the exact 
route or a number of less specific routes in the RIPE RR.
