Dear colleagues - On 10.10.2013 16:07, Marco Schmidt wrote: > - An amendment to the existing policy document ripe-592 ...which is the following: Replace section 5.5 of ripe-592, currently: "Any LIR is allowed to re-allocate complete or partial blocks of IPv4 address space that were previously allocated to them by either the RIPE NCC or the IANA." with "Any LIR is allowed to re-allocate complete or partial blocks of IPv4 address space that were previously allocated to them by the RIPE NCC or otherwise through the Regional Internet Registry System." Shall my understanding be that the rationale for replacing "the IANA" by "otherwise through the Regional Internet Registry System" is that the former - implying Legacy Internet Resources - would be in contradiction with the second paragraph: "Any existing or future RIPE policy referring to resources shall not apply to legacy resources unless the policy explicitly includes legacy resources in its scope." of section 1.2 "Scope" of the proposal? If not, what else is the rationale for this side effect on ripe-592 then? Anhow: the proposal gets my support - I'd like to see it becoming policy. Best, -C.

While working through the Impact Analysis I am somewhat at a loss how Option 1 and Option 3 are to be handled. In particular, going for Option 1: would the Legacy Resource lose its status: LEGACY and be relabelled to PI or PA? If this is the case, I do not see the rationale for the text in Option 3: In the latter case, however, it should be made clear that the RIPE NCC will not allow the Legacy Resource Holder to become the sponsoring LIR for its own Legacy Internet Resources. In case the status: LEGACY for Option 1 is preserved, then I can agree to the restriction as quoted. Any clarification would be appreciated. Thanks, Wilfried

Fwd: [db-wg] Improvements to RIPE Database Software Release Management
by Wilfried Woeber 14 Oct '13

14 Oct '13

Dear Services and Routing folks, please see below fyi. My apologies for the short notice and/or duplicate messages. Regards, Wilfried -------- Original Message -------- Subject: [db-wg] Improvements to RIPE Database Software Release Management Date: Mon, 7 Oct 2013 13:31:06 +0200 From: Johan Åhlén <jahlen(a)ripe.net> To: db-wg(a)ripe.net <db-wg(a)ripe.net> Dear colleagues, Following recent discussion regarding the release management of the RIPE Database software, we looked closely at our procedures and would like to propose some improvements. Together with the Database Working Group chairs, we've scheduled an informal meeting during RIPE 67, open for anyone that is interested in this topic, to discuss the proposals and talk about how we can improve our procedures. The meeting will take place on Monday, 14 October from 18:00-19:00 in room Sigma + Theta. We hope you will join us. Of course, you can also send your feedback and suggestions to this list. This is what we propose: - Split the RIPE Database software into smaller modules. Modularisation would minimise the release frequency for our services. For instance, with a modern API like RDAP we might have bi-weekly major releases and weekly minor releases to quickly respond to changes in the specification. With the NRTM feed, there might be just one major release per year or even less. - Replace the "emergency release" with a "minor release" that only contains patches for operational purposes and bug fixes. No new functionality would be introduced and no feature changes. We would also have "major releases" where functionality is added, changed or removed. With major releases we would keep the minimum two-week user test period leading up to the production release as stated in the previously proposed release procedure. With any minor release, we would put it in production as soon as it's available. Most bugs affect some users. Rather than trying to determine urgency based on numbers of users, size of users, number of networks affected, importance of functionality affected, etc., we would treat all bugs the same. In short, if someone reports an issue to us, we fix it right away. This process has generally worked well over recent years. - Improve the test environment. We know that users would like to have their real data to do proper testing. To solve this issue, we propose to use snapshots of the current database for this purpose. - Improve communication surrounding new releases. This covers all documentation and how we inform users about changes. We hope that you find this way forward beneficial. Kind regards, Johan Åhlén Assistant Manager Database RIPE NCC
