If nobody objects to the following definition or suggests
changes to the wording to make it fit better, then the
following is a universally agreed definition of the
"global routing table".

----------------
The Global Routing Table refers to the set of all 
prefixes (address blocks) announced in the default-free
zone of the public Internet via BGP4. Theoretically,
the routing table in a peering router of any member
of the default-free zone will consist of the "Global
Routing Table" plus the more detailed local routes which
are only found in that member's network.
--------------

If anyone can say it better or more accurately, please
contribute.
