There's an option for a network to opt in for IX updates via JSON
schema, more info at [0]. Documentation is something we're working on
improving now.

They still need to sign up, and as you said, PDB will not add network
information without their permission. An invite feature might be
something PDB would do, feel free to create an issue at [1] if you'd
like to have it discussed, but I'm not sure it's any easier than just
telling the network to sign up.

Cheers
