RIPE Policy Development Process
by Paul Rendek 01 Sep '05

01 Sep '05

Dear Colleagues We are pleased to announce that Rob Blokzijl, RIPE Chair, has published a new RIPE Document, "Policy Development Process in RIPE", (ripe-350). This document formally describes the policy development process. The updated process is operational from today, 1 September 2005. A new RIPE web page describes all the active policy proposals and their status. Each proposal has a page showing its history, status and all supporting documentation. This page can be found at: http://www.ripe.net/ripe/policies/proposals/index.html A new mailing list <policy-announce(a)ripe.net> has been created for announcing policy proposals and tracking them through the policy development process. This is not a discussion list; discussions will continue to take place on relevant RIPE Working Group lists and at RIPE Meetings. You can subscribe to the policy-announce list at: http://www.ripe.net/mailman/listinfo/policy-announce List archives are available at: http://www.ripe.net/ripe/maillists/archives/policy-announce/ Kind regards Paul Rendek Head of Member Services and Communications RIPE NCC

Anything wrong with RIPE DB?
by Marcus.Ruchti＠colt.net 11 Aug '05

11 Aug '05

Hi all, Do you know if anything happened with the RIPE DB last evening or even this morning? Our RIPE robot, reading out AS-sets and route objects, deleted a lot of prefixes. Started just a few minutes ago again without any changes to the Robot we got many prefixes back. This was of course service affecting for single-homed PI customers :-( Now I wonder if RIPE is doing something with the DB. I've seen the output has been changed (reduced mainly) but this does not affect my script. So any hints from your side are appreciated.

RIPE DB question
by Dmitry Kiselev 05 Aug '05

05 Aug '05

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi! Can I delete aut-num object from RIPE DB if it registered by me (as LIR) for one of our customers and I have NO auth info refered by object's mnt-by field? In different way question may sound like: how can I return registered resources (PI/ASN) if my customer gone? What is BCP within LIRs for this case? Thanks for advices! P.S. If I choise wrong WG, don't hit me too much ;) :) - -- Dmitry Kiselev -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iD8DBQFC8csaZaocAwQhSAQRAhg7AKChkv2sTl4qBoRcnFxAMqYGEQ5kCACbBacj KvojUT8PbYFXR/emNFga9EM= =IFJU -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

mntner creation
by Ulf Kieber 01 Aug '05

01 Aug '05

Hi all, did I miss something or since when does the RIPE DB permit creation of mntner objects by direct mail. Several of our customers have started creating mntners ad libitum and the mntner creation feature on lirportal.ripe.net has become pretty superfluous. -- Ulf Kieber email: ukieber(a)cogentco.com Sr. Network Engineer voice: +49-69-299896-21 C.C.D.

Wierd output of whois/database

25 Jul '05

Hi all, if this is the wrong list, then please point me in the right direction. I am first assuming that I have done something wrong. I should have a role 'AHM' with two person objects (MS33051-RIPE and DB). The whois output (below) also gives two further records at the end which I cannot fathom how or why they appear. Comments please Regards Matthew msmith:mlnet%whois -h whois.ripe.net -- -B AHM % This is the RIPE Whois query server #1. % The objects are in RPSL format. % % Note: the default output of the RIPE Whois server % is changed.
