That's a double question depending on how you read it it:
 
1) How do other zones do it?
 
   I don't know. I know that ZC1 also advocates following the *C-tree from
   the nodelist but selected individuals have their own routing stuff. When
   such a person drops-out there's no telling what happens
   Z3 and Z4 I have no clue what they do but with respectively 22 and 11
   unique sysop names in these 2 zones, it should not exactly be rocket
   science.
 
2) How do you route to other zones yourself?
 
   Z3 and Z4 go direct to the ZC.
 
   In Z1 I deliver direct to a number of RCs and NCs who have requested such.
   All the rest goes automatically to ZC1 who is at the top of the
   Z1-routing tree as I see it.
 
   This has successfully worked for over 20 years.
