If we make it optional now, although it is still in the RPSL definition, it can be completely ignored. Does anyone have any strong views on this either way?
I'd actually suggest going further, and getting rid of it completely. I think the change could be done so that "referral-by:" attributes would be automatically removed when an addition or update was made, so that people don't have to change their software when creating maintainer objects. In theory this warning could be converted to an error at some point in the future, but I don't think it would actually ever be necessary. -- Shane
