RIPE NCC should make a site - broken down by country code of those resources that they are unable to contact.

Best regards Niall O'Reilly From agoston at ripe.net Mon Mar 21 16:27:43 2011 From: agoston at ripe.net (Agoston Horvath) Date: Mon, 21 Mar 2011 16:27:43 +0100 Subject: [ncc-services-wg] GRS updates for the RIPE Database Message-ID: <4D876E6F.8000509@ripe.net> [Apologies for duplicate emails] Dear colleagues, We are pleased to announce that we've deployed a revamped Global Resource Service (GRS) in the RIPE Database today, 21 March 2011. Please take note of the following changes: - All foreign (non-RIPE) sources have '-GRS' added to their name. Old names without '-GRS' will work for one year for backwards compatibility. You are kindly asked to adjust your environment as necessary within that time-frame. - A short-hand format has been added to the '-s GRS' to make it easier to select all GRS sources. - Queries against GRS sources don't filter returned data, nor is any accounting in place. - 'RIPE-GRS' has been added as a GRS version of our own database and includes the changes noted above. For more information on GRS, see: http://labs.ripe.net/Members/Paul_P_/ripe-registry-global-resource-service Regards, Agoston Horvath Database Group RIPE NCC From arne at ripe.net Tue Mar 22 15:54:49 2011 From: arne at ripe.net (Arne Kiessling) Date: Tue, 22 Mar 2011 15:54:49 +0100 Subject: [ncc-services-wg] Statistics on Policy Implementation "Contractual Requirements for Provider Independent Resource Holders in the RIPE NCC Service Region" In-Reply-To: References: <4D7F335B.6090602@ripe.net> Message-ID: <4D88B839.5090308@ripe.net> Hi Niall, thank you for your feedback and input.

The RIPE Database still contains many forward DOMAIN objects, listed below. Only four TLD Registries are still actively using the RIPE Database for their whole provisioning or for a second-level dataset, .SM, .MC, .NO, .IL. These four Registries are working on alternative solutions and their data will remain in the RIPE Database until their arrangements are complete. Looking at the update logs for the last year, there has been very little activity on all the other DOMAIN data (summarised below). The occasional updates are End Users who maintain their own DOMAIN objects. Even though the activity logs show that these Registries were not actively using the RIPE Database, we still contacted them for confirmation. In some cases, we received no response. The RIPE NCC will delete all the forward DOMAIN data (except for the four active users) in the week beginning Monday, 4 April 2011.

The document can be found at: https://www.ripe.net/lir-services/resource-management/contact/registration-procedures The aim is to inform LIRs about what is expected from them during an evaluation and what kind of information the IP Resource Analyst (IPRA) is looking for. This document covers the most common types of requests that reflect the business models and technology deployments in the RIPE NCC service region. If this document is considered to be useful by the RIPE NCC membership, the RIPE NCC will produce the same documentation for IPv6 and AS Number requests.
