If auth:NONE was deprecated why is the weak password graph constantly increasing: http://www.ripe.net/projects/dbconstat/protect-weakpass.html

Is auth: NONE still valid or not?

According to ripe-358 it is not: http://www.ripe.net/ripe/docs/db-query-manual.html

If not, how is NONE being used - or is this graph plotting incorrect info?

Hank, I just searched through the maintainers, and there are no maintainers with the NONE password. The graph is incorrect. My guess is that we are looking for the word "none" in the object, without actually looking for the "auth: none" attribute. Apologies for this, we'll have a look and fix it. -- Shane
