Summary of ERX-TF discussion

Dear Colleagues,

As promised, here is a summary of the short discussion had on 
the <erx-tf at ripe.net> mailing list over the last few weeks.

There have been about 15 messages in total.

On 10 October we published the RIPE NCC's proposed ERX process 
for IPv4 to the Task Force.

There were two technical queries: a request for confirmation 
that all contacts in both databases be e-mailed. Also, there 
was a request for confirmation on how reverse delegations would 
be handled. 

Substantive issues included a question on how early registrations
would be handled from a policy point of view. The RIPE NCC 
confirmed that in the past, the majority of registrants have 
agreed to meet the current policy requirements for registration.
However, we also noted that previous registrations have tended 
to be done for organisations who place a value on registration 
data. 

It was argued that the policy issues were less important than 
the accuracy of the registration data transferred/updated.

No other issues on the transfer process were raised. It appears 
that the Task Force is happy with the proposed transfer process. 
As such, we would like to publish the proposed process in the 
next few days.

Regards,
