[db-wg] Release of prototypes of RPSLng IRRToolSet and Whois Server

 [ Apologies for multiple messages ]

 Dear Colleagues,

 The RIPE NCC is pleased to announce version 4.8.0 prototype release of IRRToolSet,
 and version 0.1 prototype release of RIPE Whois Server Software containing RPSLng extensions.

 RPSLng is an effort to extend RPSL language, enabling
 the language to document routing policies for the
 IPv6 and multicast address families currently used on the Internet.

 The prototype of IRRToolSet implements the Internet Draf Document draft-blunk-rpslng-01
 (http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-blunk-rpslng-01.txt).

 The prototype release contains peval and rpslcheck that already work with
 a new dictionary (you can also try the Web prototype for peval).
 Currently work is in progess to make other tools RPSLng compatible.
