We already do.  Segments are released upto and including 6 days before issue,
to allow time for it to filter up the chain, across zones, and then finally
compiled and issued by each ZC on Friday.

If you want hard realtime data, you need a persistent database and a way of
replicating changes.  This is also do-able.  Possibly an option we can explore
with XML (since we're rewriting the rules anyway).  An XML processor could
inject/obtain mini-diffs (single-node updates) to/from standard netmail, or
even echomail, as they are made.  Changes to a node will propogate in minutes
among IP nodes, and a day or three for the rest.
