Dear Colleagues, [Apologies for multiple messages]. The RIPE NCC is pleased to announce the release of Version 3.0.1 of the RIPE Database software. This software is compliant with both RPSL (RFC-2622) and RPS-Security (RFC-2725). This release is primarily a bug fix release. No new features were added to the server. You can download this release by anonymous FTP from the following URL: ftp://ftp.ripe.net/ripe/dbase/software/ripe-dbase-3.0.1.tar.gz If you do not intend to use the cross-reference files or prefer to build them yourself via "make docs", you can download the source without these files by anonymous FTP from the following URL: ftp://ftp.ripe.net/ripe/dbase/software/ripe-dbase-3.0.1-nocxref.tar.gz A new version of the Whois client is also included with this release, in the utils/whois3 directory. You can also download this client separately by anonymous FTP from the following URL: ftp://ftp.ripe.net/tools/ripe-whois-3.0.tar.gz If you have any more questions, please don't hesitate to contact <ripe-dbm@ripe.net>. Regards, --- Shane Kerr Database Software Engineer RIPE NCC
