This is a general RIPE db question which should be treated for all objects, like authentication, and other such issues applicable to all objects. Thus it is outside the scope of RIPE-81++. It is inside the scope of the database working group. To explain my very firm point of view here let me explain that this document needs to be stable for both the RIPE database implementation work and adaption of the PRIDE tools. Both activities are also already a little behind shedule. Further delays present the real danger that it will be next year before any of this is operational. We cannot wait any more. The absolute deadline is the RIPE meeting but preferably this should be done earlier. Laurent and Jessica had agreed on June 3d to provide pieces of text for this draft, especially for the interas-in and interas-out attributes. When we had not received anything but a repeat of their syntax proposals, Tony and I wrote it up ourselves again in order to get the draft out now, weeks after schedule. Daniel
