It would be a ton of signalling, but for what purpose? Some objects are perfectly fine for years on end without change. A better, less obtrusive, keepalive mechanism are the invoices that RIPE NCC sends to its members. At the moment there is no requirement to demonstrate to others you have a script running that can touch all objects. > As far as I know this was not explicitly specified beforehand, so it > would be good to have a clear WG consensus call on this now.

Implementing the bugfix is the correct course of action. At the moment the behaviour is not as expected and I appreciate the NCC taking action on such short notice. Kind regards, Job
