If we deconstruct RIPE-NONAUTH’s current state of affairs we already are facing a irreversible concept: if one deletes an object in RIPE-NONAUTH, it can never be restored.
If someone deletes their nonauth route/route6, they’re making an explicit request for deletion. It may be wrong and they may have made a mistake but the outcome will happen as the result of an explicit, password authorised instruction to the IRRDB to take a specific action. This proposal suggests deleting these objects on the basis of implicit requests via a third party without any feedback mechanism to either the creator of the roa or the holder of the route object and where the person creating the roa may not even be aware of the consequences of their actions. This violates the principle of least astonishment. Nick
