I'm a little disappointed that you didn't choose a copyleft style license, like with the RIPE Atlas Software Probe, which uses GPLv3. That would help ensure that the work of the RIPE NCC employees is not used by a proprietary product or service by a company unwilling or unable to share their changes. Probably in the presentation at RIPE 84 there will be a bit of explanation about the choice of using a license so easy to convert back to closed source. 😉
There are issues regardless of what license you pick and remember that there are proprietary HSM dependencies used, which could potentially cause issues with GPLv3 for the NCC itself as far as I understand it. -Cynthia
