I just noticed that aut-num object for AS2852 in RIPE DB contains line

with 'afi ipv6.unicast' and 'from' keywords merged, which causs some confusion of my parsing scripts.
Maybe I am missing something but I think this is not syntactically valid, is it? And if it is not, how could that get into RIPE DB?
Smells like a bug! https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4012 states: The possible values for <afi> are as follows: ipv4.unicast ipv4.multicast ipv4 (equivalent to ipv4.unicast, ipv4.multicast) ipv6.unicast ipv6.multicast ipv6 (equivalent to ipv6.unicast, ipv6.multicast) any (equivalent to ipv4, ipv6) any.unicast (equivalent to ipv4.unicast, ipv6.unicast) any.multicast (equivalent to ipv4.multicast, ipv6.multicast) Kind regards, Job
