And if you haven't been to radb.net lately, the How-To's are an excellent
place to start. There is also a new java tool to send objects in or edit
objects if you prefer pointing and clicking. I was able to move to pgp
auth on our objects in about 15 minutes using the directions posted on the
site.
All in all, I found it pretty painless to register our info. We don't
publically peer with anyone (yet), but it seemed like a good idea to put
all the info on our AS in the radb and give people another place to find
up-to-date contact information.
In other words, I see no reason *not* to register your AS, maintainer and
route objects there...
