Hi I would like to here your comments on the following proposal. After being in an audit and getting a list as long as my arm of broken objects in the DB it turned out that the majority of the objects where pre RIPE and not subject to the same checks. I therefore propose that all inetnums without a status (being pre-RIPE there is no status) should be marked with a new status of PR (Pre RIPE) and therefore be ignored by an audit tool. Also all other objects prior to ripe should be flagged so as to be ingnored in an audit, making it much easier to see what really needs fixing. Your thoughts and comments please. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Stephen Burley "If patience is a virtue, and ignorance is bliss, UUNET EMEA Hostmaster you can have a pretty good life [SB855-RIPE] if you're stupid and willing to wait" ------------------------------------------------------------------------
