Useful machine readable iana and ripe data

I was reading a HN post about Public Suffix List Problems [1] and saw a mention for a JSON list of Generic top-level domains (gTLDs) [3] as opposed to the human readable list [4].

I'm always on the lookout for the canonical source of interesting machine readable data that I might use one day.

One source is the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority [2]. A google search (site:data.iana.org -tz) was interesting. [5][6]

Most of the IANA protocol registries have a machine readable list [7]

Time zone data [8][9]

The Regional Internet Registry for Europe, the Middle East and parts of Central Asia (RIPE) [10] has a great data API [11] where you can do lookups such as [12] and even [13]
