Re: RIPE-227?

[Sabrina Waschke <]

Hank,

The robot has now been fixed and recognizes all templates when using the 
correct titles including the '#'.

Please do *NOT* remove the template titles as presented on the request 
form(s). The robot will not recognize the form and set it to a lower priority.

As I said in my previous message the robot gave a warning (not an error) for 
the templates #[ANNOUNCED ADDRESS RANGES]# and #[PEERING CONTACTS]# and the 
requests were immediately forwarded to a hostmaster for processing. Requests 
containing errors should be corrected and resent, the keyword NOAUTO can be 
used to bypass the robot.

Kind regards,

Sabrina Waschke
