Hi everybody,
I was just re-running some tests internally within bgp.tools and I've
noticed that the RDAP responses from RIPE no longer include the email
address of the person object. For example I used to (and expected) to
get the email address in the object for
https://rdap.db.ripe.net/entity/BC6775-RIPE, but it seems to have been
removed from the output at some point.
That does not appear to be a way to log in to authenticate
trustworthiness of RDAP responses, is there any other way to get
this information? I can see this information on the RIPE website (
https://apps.db.ripe.net/db-web-ui/lookup?source=ripe&key=BC6775-RIPE&type=…
) but I do not want to scrape that, and this information is incredibly
useful for helping users onboard ( with a trustworthy email address )
to services like bgp.tools.
Is this an intended change? Have I done something silly? All of the above ;) ?
By looking at the release info I can see it was added in November (#1333)
Thanks
Ben
