Would be a better approach to build an rtbh server using something which is
either fully scriptable with static config files or which can directly feed
off an sql data source.  BIRD and OpenBGPD are good for the first (I built
a simple system a couple of years ago using o-bgpd), but Exabgp looks very
interesting for the latter.  Once you can chain off an sql database, it's
trivial to put in a controlled front end to allow a) noc people access to
the rtbh system and b) controlled expiry of existing entries.
