Dear colleagues, A new RIPE Policy proposal, 2019-03, "BGP Hijacking is a RIPE Policy Violation", is now available for discussion. This proposed policy is of interest to both the Anti-Abuse and Routing working groups. The chairs of both these working groups have agreed to keep the discussion on one single mailing list to avoid duplication, and for formal consideration of the proposal within the RIPE Policy Development Process. You are therefore requested to share your feedback on this proposal with the Anti-Abuse mailing list. The goal of this proposal is to define that BGP hijacking is not accepted as normal practice within the RIPE NCC service region. You can find the full proposal at: https://www.ripe.net/participate/policies/proposals/2019-03 We encourage you to review this proposal and send your comments to <anti-abuse-wg@ripe.net> before 17 April 2019. Kind regards, Marco Schmidt Policy Officer RIPE NCC
