URL: From denis at ripe.net Mon Apr 27 14:51:11 2009 From: denis at ripe.net (Denis Walker) Date: Mon, 27 Apr 2009 14:51:11 +0200 Subject: [ncc-services-wg] Deprecation of "rev-srv:" attribute Message-ID: <49F5AA3F.8090001@ripe.net> [Apologies for duplicate emails] Dear Colleagues, The RIPE NCC will begin implementing the deprecation of the "rev-srv:" attribute. This was discussed on the DNS WG mailing list and at the RIPE 54 Meeting in Tallinn, Estonia, during the Database Working Group session. More details are available at: http://www.ripe.net/ripe/maillists/archives/dns-wg/2007/msg00090.html The plan suggested on the mailing list will be used and there are three stages: - Stage 1: Announcement - Stage 2: Syntax change - Stage 3: Clean-up The details of each stage are outlined below. Stage 1: Announcement ---------------------- The announcement will let users know that the process is starting. Over the next month you will need to check any scripts that auto-generate INET(6)NUM objects. Make sure that no "rev-srv:" attributes are included in the generated objects. Stage 2: Syntax change ---------------------- This stage will begin on May 27 2009, when the RIPE NCC will remove the "rev-srv:" attribute from the RIPE RPSL syntax for INET(6)NUM objects. Any new objects created after this date must not have this attribute included. If any objects that include this attribute are modified, then the "rev-srv:" attributes must be removed. If you wish to keep the information for documentation purposes, change the"rev-srv:" attributes into "remarks:" attributes. The "rev-srv:" attribute will also be removed from the list of inverse query options. Stage 3: Clean-up ------------------ The final stage will begin before the RIPE 59 Meeting, which takes place from 5-9 October, 2009. The clean-up will remove any remaining "rev-srv:" attributes from these objects. They will be converted into "remarks:" attributes. If you have any questions about this, please contact .

Given the Stage 2 `If you wish to keep the information for documentation purposes, change the "rev-srv:" attributes into "remarks:" attributes.? I'd like to suggest to NOT convert - the most probably stale data - to "remarks:" attributes, but rather to remove them altogether. > If you have any questions about this, please contact . > > > Regards, > > Denis Walker > > Business Analyst > RIPE NCC Best regards, Wilfried.

If they are going away, let them go away. The RIPE NCC delegation checker hasn't looked at rev-srv for a while and without that 99.99% of that info will be outdated, or with luck, a duplication of the other attribute.
