Dear colleagues, we noticed that the PGP-Key for ncc@ripe.net <mailto:ncc@ripe.net> (Key ID: C6839AEF) has expired on the 2nd of February 2018. As of writing, no new public keys have been published over at https://www.ripe.net/manage-ips-and-asns/contact/ripe-ncc-pgp-keys <https://www.ripe.net/manage-ips-and-asns/contact/ripe-ncc-pgp-keys> Looking ahead to the rollout of the EU GDPR in May 2018, it might be beneficial to allow for PGP-encrypted communication between LIRs and RIPE NCC, besides the existing PGP-based database authentication mechanism.
