Community friends,
Who would like to get involved in some policy building?
Putting the “work” back into Working Group, we are seeking volunteers to follow-up on the following two RIPE Database Requirements Task Force recommendations relating to address policy.
2.1. The task force recommends that as resource holders have full responsibility over the registration of their IPv4 PA assignment(s), they are free to make assignments or not. If the community accepts this recommendation, the relevant RIPE Policies should be updated accordingly, and documenting IPv4 PA assignment(s) will stop being a policy requirement.
2.2. Following the data consistency principle, the task force also recommends resource registration requirements be applied consistently to all Internet number resources, regardless of their type or status.

Much of the heavy lifting has already been performed by the task force, and the recommendations have received positive feedback during previous RIPE meetings and BoFs.
Please respond with your interest to this thread or directly to the Address Policy WG Co-Chairs.
Regards,
James
APWG co-chair
