Hi Denis,

Just for my understanding. For such clean-ups is there any need to have a policy to remove certain object references or this comes under RIR housekeeping can be done once problem has been identified by the community consensus.

Hi all In the DB WG session this afternoon we only touch on the fact that this project is ongoing. I go into more details on the problems we have with this project with my short presentation in the Routing WG tomorrow. Regards denis

Folks,

For any RPSL lovers among you that weren't at the Address Policy WG meeting
this morning, the topic of cleaning up referenced AS numbers came up again.
There are about ~2,000 16 bits ASNs that have been returned, but are still
referenced in the import/export lines of other aut-num objects, either
directly or via as-sets.

There will be more discussion of this in the Database WG this afternoon, but
I thought I'd mention it here as it has implications for those on this list
that use RPSL.

Cheers,
Rob
