According to the agreement between RIPE NCC and DENIC we plan Has this agreement been published? No, this is a working agreement about technical details. It is based on the community consensus that domain related information (excluding reverse delegations) should be moved from the RIPE Database to the respective ccTLD databases. Fair enough, but community consensus must be recorded.

i am confused here. i presume the communities involved, ripe ncc and denic, reached a consensus and one or the other would be whining if not. why should this be a concern of the other lirs or the wg or you or me?

See Andrei's reply, which points to a decision at RIPE 35 of the db-wg. So the WG has an interest, else RIPE NCC wouldn't have sent it the announcement about today's change in the first place. All I wanted was a reference to the original decision. Regards. Mike
