RIPE Whois RPSL Migration
by RIPE NCC 04 Jan '01

04 Jan '01

[ Apologies for duplicate mails ] RIPE Whois RPSL Migration The RIPE Database re-implementation project is nearing completion. A key feature of the new database is the implementation of RPSL, to replace the old RIPE-181 standard. RPSL is similar, but not identical, to RIPE-181. The RIPE NCC expects that many programs that use the RIPE Whois database will continue to operate properly without modification. However, some programs may have problems parsing the RPSL format, or be confused by differences in behaviour. We would like to ensure that the transition to RPSL is as easy as possible. Therefore, we are working with the RIPE community to provide resources you can use to check any programs or scripts that you have that use the RIPE Whois database. Please visit our Migration page for further information: http://www.ripe.net/ripencc/pub-services/db/rpsl/index.html This page will be updated regularly with the latest information. We will provide additional tools and information as they become available. The actual timeline of when the RPSL server will replace the existing RIPE-181 server will be decided at the RIPE-38 meeting. If you want input on when the change will occur, then you should either attend this meeting or post your comments on the RIPE DB mailing list. http://www.ripe.net/ripe/meetings/current/ripe-38/index.html http://www.ripe.net/ripe/wg/db/index.html Regards, The RIPE Database Group.

RIPE Region Hostcount for November 2000
by RIPE Hostcount Maintainer 14 Dec '00

14 Dec '00

Dear All, below is the hostcount for November 2000. The table shows an increase since last month of over 1,000,000 (or 9.1%) to a total of almost 12,100,000 hosts in the DNS in Europe and surrounding areas. The 'it' domain shows the highest increase for November with approximately 550,000 hosts more than in October. Background information and more statistics are available at http://www.ripe.net/hostcount/ - Brief Notes on this Hostcount - - the January data had to be reused for uk due to problems with co.uk. since that time. - the October data had to be reused for lu and il due to zone transfer restrictions at the top level. - no details of the number of no response and AXFR block zones are available for de. - the large increase can mostly be attributed to recovered hosts which were lost to the hostcount in previous months, rather than a structural increase. Please see... http://www.ripe.net/ripencc/pub-services/stats/hostcount/faq.html#axfr - Credits - I would like to thank all people who help me to create the hostcount every month by running a local count: ad Joan Marc Lauga am Hrant Dadivanyan at Gerhard Winkler be DNS-BE Registration Office ch Marcel Schneider cy Vasoula Papapetrou cz Jiri Orsag de Peter Koch dk Morten Christensen eg EUN Hostcount Admin es ES NIC fr Annie Renard gr Dimitris Zisiadis hr Ivan Maric ie Mike Norris il Netvision NOC is Marius Olafsson it Maurizio Martinelli Daniele Vannozzi li Marcel Schneider lt Daiva Tamulioniene lu Alain Frieden mk Goran Muratovski mt Robert Sultana no Havard Eidnes pl Mirek Luc pt Joao Pagaime ro Eugenie Staicut ru Andrey Dobrotsvetov sk Lubos Elias sm Maurizio Martinelli Daniele Vannozzi tr METU Hostcount Admin uk Robert Stone Kevin Hoadley If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.
