Updating ORGANISATION objects in the RIPE Database
by Trudy Prins 27 Aug '07

27 Aug '07

Dear Colleagues, As announced last week, RIPE NCC will perform an upgrade on the LIR Portal software and internal software on Wednesday, 29 August 2007. If your ORGANISATION object is updated as part of this process, and the object contains a "notify:" attribute, you will receive an e-mail alerting you to the update. To verify or update your contact details, please log in to LIR Portal from Thursday, 30 August 2007. The reason for the upgrade is to implement a standardised format for contact details in the RIPE NCC internal registry database. The ORGANISATION objects in the RIPE Database will then be synchronised to reflect the updated contact details in the registry database. You may be notified if the ORGANISATION object relating to your organisation has been updated as part of this process. To verify or update your addresses, please log in to LIR Portal from Thursday, 30 August 2007. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause. If you have any questions, please send an e-mail to <sw-bugs(a)ripe.net>. Regards, Trudy Prins Business Applications Manager, RIPE NCC

Lir Portal software upgrade notifications
by Trudy Prins 14 Aug '07

14 Aug '07

Dear Colleagues, On Monday, 13 August 2007 we performed a software upgrade that resulted in e-mail notifications about changes to objects in the RIPE Database. The reason for the upgrade was that in the old system registries could have multiple e-mail addresses and contact persons, but there was no logical connection between the two. In the new set-up, every registry has one generic e-mail address that also shows up in the RIPE Database ORGANISATION object. If your organisation was using more e-mail addresses, the first one was used for this. Additional e-mail addresses were matched to existing contacts, or in case they couldn't be matched, new contacts were made for them. This change was necessary for future development of our portal services and registry database. Please log in to LIR Portal if you want to verify or change your contact details. If you have any questions, please send an e-mail to sw-bugs(a)ripe.net. We apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused. Regards, Trudy Prins Business Applications Manager, RIPE NCC
