mm, MaxMind is not enough.

I don't think it'd be right to make a generic geoip facility in geodns. It shouldn't be terribly difficult to write maxmind compatible databases and use those; or if there's another data format GeoDNS should support then I'd be open to that.

Another option is to tell MaxMind -- in my experience they are pretty responsive about updating their data. :-)

Thanks @abh but I do have a valid use case where manually specifying ranges would help: in Mauritius, some operators route traffic to South-East-Asia, and other operators route traffic to Europe. With help of manual ranges, I could have geodns resolve the closest IP for each operator.

I'm not thinking about writing MaxMind compatible database because the ones we have with our subscription shouldn't be overwritten.

Not sure if that makes sense :)

In v2.5.0 there's support for targeting by IP, but only the specific IP or the /24 network (/48 for IPv6). I believe you specify it with the IP address (instead of the country code) or the first three octets of the IP address. If it's not too many networks you have to override that might work.
