4 Remove Maxmind GeoIP usage; it is broken
5 Consider using ipfire's database and convert it to geoip format:
6 https://location.ipfire.org/how-to-use
7 Add https://location.ipfire.org/databases/1/
9 Add support for LIR blocks by parsing the ripe.db.inetnum.gz.
10 This lists sub-allocations and assignments made by local LIR/ISPs:
11 ftp://ftp.ripe.net/ripe/dbase/split/ripe.db.inetnum.gz
13 Add Custom GeoIP support
14 If a user wants to supply their own DB; we should allow this
16 Add GeoIP database inversion
17 Optionally combine the results with delegation information to produce more
20 Add/Fix support for IPv6
21 ./blockfinder -r 2001:200:dff:fff1:216:3eff:feb1:44d7
23 Add lock file to ensure '-i' only runs once
25 Add support for BGP related information
26 Interface with routeviews.org for data
27 show all ASNs announced by a country (as allocated)
28 show all blocks announced by ASN
29 show all blocks announced by a collection of ASNs (country)
30 we need to parse MRT binary archives from http://archive.routeviews.org/
31 maybe with http://code.google.com/p/pybgpdump/ ?
33 Add latency GeoIP confirmation test
34 As an interface with routeviews.org
35 pick n out of x netblocks total, randomly select an ip in the block,
36 traceroute, repeat this process until n is reasonably near x, average
37 the results to find a likely lowest latency into the country.
38 Given the target ip and the above calculated latency map, compare the
39 latency - shorest latency is likely the most honest - liars can only
40 delay packets or drop them.
45 Fix country code searching code
46 It appears to be broken for "korea"
47 Add country-code re-init code and progress meter
48 When creating or refreshng the cache, we should display progress
50 Add support for proxies during updating/fetching
51 Fix country xml download
52 content-length verify and check for stale cache
53 Add support to list all country codes with possible results
54 Add an option to print the whois description(seems the most complete).
55 Refactor the argument parsing to make it reasonable
56 Required arguments should be postional, etc
57 Refactor updating/fetching animation
58 Add system wide cache_dir to ease blockfinder use on multi user systems
