The file you mention contains all IP ranges allocated and assigned by the RIPE NCC. IP ranges from the new /8(s) will only appear in this list once the RIPE NCC starts using it for allocations (and, if applicable, for assignments).
A complete list of allocated and available resources, including the new /8(s) are listed here: http://labs.ripe.net/Members/mirjam/new-ripe-ncc-address-statistics-reports

Andrea, Thank you for this pointer, this is indeed an interesting and helpful file. However, I note that it has the same problem as the traditional delegated prefixes file, ie, it lists the "debogon" prefixes listed in your announcement (185.0.0.0/16, 185.1.0.0/21, and 185.1.24.0/24) as available as part of an "available" listing for all of 185.0.0.0/10: ripencc||ipv4|185.0.0.0|4194304||available If we were to use this file, we would have the same problem that we have using the traditional delegated list; we would list your "debogon" prefixes as bogon, because, according to your records, they are available, ie unallocated/unassigned, ie bogon. Do you see the problem we're running into? From my perspective, the "debogon" prefixes should be considered allocated - it's an internal allocation, and a temporary one, but it's still an allocation. This is, in fact, how 185.0.0.0/17 is listed in the RIPE WHOIS database: % Information related to '185.0.0.0 - 185.1.255.255' inetnum: 185.0.0.0 - 185.1.255.255 netname: EU-ZZ-20100510 org: ORG-NCC1-RIPE descr: RIPE NCC Test Announce country: EU admin-c: HU266-RIPE tech-c: RISM-RIPE status: ALLOCATED PA mnt-by: RIPE-NCC-HM-MNT mnt-by: RIPE-NCC-RIS-MNT source: RIPE # Filtered But this is not reflected in the delegated-latest file. Should it not be there (and in this new experimental file) as an allocation, since that's what WHOIS says it is?
