Marius et al,
This is a good idea, however I think it'd be good to add an email
notification to the gateway owner that a subnet to route was added, what
that subnet is, and contact info of who that subnet belongs to so proper
coordination can engage. Without such a user could point his route to an
existing host who may not know about this to begin with.
I too host routing for others and having their info helps especially where
dynamic commercial ips are concerned.

Maybe there is a need of a shift of the portal
paradigm on allocations.
At the moment, users allocate subnets to a gateway.
Maybe a switch to allocating a gateway to a subnet would actually solve
the problem:
The subnet owner chooses the gateway as he wishes, which can be his own
(which is logically the default choice), or another one (and choosing
the wrong one will actually only break his own subnet setup leading to a
correct choice later on, without affecting anyone).

Further to discussions FYI
My system gateway gb7cip acts as Gateway for other UK Subnets that
are outside 'my own-loaned' 44net addresses.
Which has been agreed with the other UK systems, that are active via
'this gateway' and able to reach the rest of the 44net outside the UK.
So there is a requirement to still be able to do this..
