I should be more specific about the scheme used to generate routtab tags.
I first looked at inform/info tags, looking for a clue as to what
type of table was needed. I then looked at contact/netsoft combinations
(which is what Chris Thomas uses, I believe). If none of those were
"valid" (HOMEBREW, ...), the tag was not generated.

GENESEO had an inform/info pair that was valid, so a correct routtab
tag was generated.

Sorry for the confusion.
