In case of 1 chair this time, my vote would be for Sean Stuart. Piotr already got selected for the RIPE exec board last meeting, I’m sure he has enough to deal with on that ‘WG’ 😉 Sean has been looking for a way to volunteer for a while in the community and his background could provide a good fit for the role imho.

Implementation plan and time line for NWI5 - Out-of-region ROUTE(6) objects and removal of ASN authorisation for ROUTE(6) object creation.
by Nathalie Trenaman 05 Sep '18

05 Sep '18

Dear colleagues, On Tuesday, 4 September, we will make changes to the way out-of-region objects are handled in the RIPE Database, as directed by the RIPE Database Working Group. We will implement the following changes in this order between 09:00 and 15:00 UTC+2. 1. The RIPE Routing Registry will no longer support the creation of out-of-region ROUTE(6) and AUT-NUM objects 2. The creation of ROUTE(6) objects will no longer need authorisation from the ASN holder 3. Existing out-of-region objects will have their "source:" attribute changed to "RIPE-NONAUTH” For users of NRTM, these changes will be reflected on the FTP website after 00:00 UTC+2 on Wednesday, 5 September. You can find our implementation plan at: https://www.ripe.net/manage-ips-and-asns/db/impact-analysis-for-nwi-5-imple… <https://www.ripe.net/manage-ips-and-asns/db/impact-analysis-for-nwi-5-imple…> We also published an article on RIPE Labs with some background and additional context: https://labs.ripe.net/Members/denis/out-of-region-route-6-and-aut-num-objec… <https://labs.ripe.net/Members/denis/out-of-region-route-6-and-aut-num-objec…> We will inform the Database Working Group once all changes have been implemented. Kind regards Nathalie Trenaman Product Manager RIPE NCC

Status Update on NWI-5 Deployment
by Nathalie Trenaman 04 Sep '18

04 Sep '18

Dear colleagues, We are currently deploying the changes for NWI-5 in the RIPE Database. At the moment, we have successfully rolled out: - the removal of mnt-routes from AUT-NUM objects - removal of the RIPE-NCC-RPSL-MNT The rollout of updating the “source:" attribute to RIPE-NONAUTH on out-of-region ROUTE, ROUTE6 and AUT-NUM objects is taking slightly longer than expected. This means that the source will gradually be updated on out-of-region objects for the rest of today as the script runs. Kind regards, Nathalie Trenaman Product Manager RIPE NCC
