by Andrea Cima 30 May '09

30 May '09

[Apologies for duplicates] Dear colleagues, We are pleased to announce that the RIPE NCC has implemented the second phase of "Direct Internet Resource Assignments to End Users from the RIPE NCC". In this phase the RIPE NCC will contact all LIRs to request information regarding existing direct resources requested through that LIR. This will be done via the LIR Portal. All LIR Portal users will receive a notification email on 28 May 2009 detailing the process. Details of the implementation are available at: http://www.ripe.net/rs/pi-existing-assignments.html Timelines: Before September 2009: LIRs need to indicate which resources should stay with that LIR. This will affect the charging scheme for 2010. Before 31 December 2009: LIRs must upload contracts and registration papers for all resources still associated with that LIR. More information on the requirements of the contractual agreement can be found here: http://www.ripe.net/membership/lir-end-user-requirements.html Kind regards, Andrea Cima RIPE NCC

[Apologies for duplicate emails] Dear Colleagues, The RIPE NCC has begun implementing the deprecation of the "rev-srv:" attribute. This was discussed on the DNS WG mailing list and at the RIPE 54 Meeting in Tallinn, Estonia, during the Database Working Group session. More details are available at: http://www.ripe.net/ripe/maillists/archives/dns-wg/2007/msg00090.html The plan suggested on the mailing list is being used and there are three stages: - Stage 1: Announcement - Stage 2: Syntax change - Stage 3: Clean-up The announcement was made to the Database Working Group mailing list on 27 April 2009. *Stage 2 has now been completed.* The RIPE NCC has removed the "rev-srv:" attribute from the RIPE RPSL syntax for INET(6)NUM objects. Any new objects created must not have this attribute included. If any objects that include this attribute are modified, then the "rev-srv:" attributes must be removed. If you wish to keep the information for documentation purposes, change the"rev-srv:" attributes into "remarks:" attributes. The "rev-srv:" attribute has also been removed from the list of inverse query options. Stage 3 is planned to be completed before RIPE 59. A further announcement will be made before the cleanup is performed. If you have any questions about this, please contact ripe-dbm(a)ripe.net. Regards, Denis Walker Business Analyst RIPE NCC
