In 2020 there was a survey of the users of private measurements [2], which was intended to get feedback on their actual use-cases. I seem to recall a very small set of respondents from an already small set of surveyees. The results are probably lost in the ether. I feel there's an aspect of the broader question that is rarely touched upon in these discussions: would user behaviour actually change if non-public measurements went away? I'm never sure how many use-cases are truly secret. Cheers, S.

The selection of who to measure is a statement. +1 Also, while the data would be useful, I don't think the role of the ripe ncc is to grade commercial services. Let other companies or individual researchers do that.

Format change for index pages of RIS MRT data files and RIPE Atlas daily dataset dumps
by Oleg Muravskiy 24 Nov '22

24 Nov '22

Dear RIS and RIPE Atlas users, On Wednesday, 30 November 2022 we are planning to migrate the web server at <https://data.ris.ripe.net/> as well as <https://data-store.ripe.net> from Apache httpd to nginx. This will affect how the file listings in HTML index pages are generated, including the following: * RIS MRT data files (updates and dumps) * RIPE Atlas daily dataset dumps If you rely on the format of these pages, you need to update your software. Before we do the upgrade, you could check the new format of the index pages at: https://test-data.ris.ripe.net/rrc00/ We would like to ask you to avoid relying on the specific format of the index.html files. If you are fetching BGP dump files, please use the REST API that is described at: https://ris.ripe.net/docs/40_Prototypes/15_per_rrc_dumps.html You might also consider using per-peer dump files instead: https://ris.ripe.net/docs/40_Prototypes/10_per_peer_dumps.html We want to encourage you to provide your feedback on the API, so that we could improve it and build a similar API for the update files. If you are fetching update files, please use direct URLs to files as described at: https://ris.ripe.net/docs/20_raw_data_mrt.html#name-and-location Kind regards, Oleg Muravskiy, Robert Kisteleki RIPE NCC
