Subject: Announcement: RIPE Database software version 3.0.1
Message-ID: <200106141320.PAA18543@x17.ripe.net>


Dear Colleagues,

[Apologies for multiple messages].

The RIPE NCC is pleased to announce the release of Version 3.0.1 of the
RIPE Database software.  This software is compliant with both RPSL
(RFC-2622) and RPS-Security (RFC-2725).  

This release is primarily a bug fix release.  No new features were added
to the server.

You can download this release by anonymous FTP from the following URL:

ftp://ftp.ripe.net/ripe/dbase/software/ripe-dbase-3.0.1.tar.gz

If you do not intend to use the cross-reference files or prefer to build
them yourself via "make docs", you can download the source without these
files by anonymous FTP from the following URL:

ftp://ftp.ripe.net/ripe/dbase/software/ripe-dbase-3.0.1-nocxref.tar.gz

A new version of the Whois client is also included with this release, in
the utils/whois3 directory.  You can also download this client
separately by anonymous FTP from the following URL:

ftp://ftp.ripe.net/tools/ripe-whois-3.0.tar.gz

If you have any more questions, please don't hesitate to contact
<ripe-dbm at ripe.net>.

Regards,

Subject: cgi-bin/whois?query broken
Message-ID: <15149.45119.37045.801511@mail.berlin.contrib.net>

hello

when inserting objects with <angle brackets> like this:

import:       from AS1273
              action pref=100;
              accept <AS-ECRC> AND NOT {0.0.0.0/0}

the query http://www.ripe.net/cgi-bin/whois?query=AS5427
will not display the data correctly:

import:       from AS1270
              action pref=100;
              accept  AND NOT {0.0.0.0/0}

also, AFAIR previously the http output made
the 'ASxxx' strings as links to the objects
which was very convenient. will we see that
again?

regards, heiko
