Hi Job,
I guess you have a point seeing as the non-realtime DB files are public
without any paperwork.

In order to provide the most value to RIPE NCC's members, I'd argue
that we need to remove ALL the paperwork e.g. allow any IP address to
set up a NRTM stream for the purpose of mirroring IRR objects that
contain routing information: route/route6/route-set/as-set. NTT is
mirroring the RIPE database at rr.ntt.net and we filter away anything
non-routing anyhow.
The current NRTM agreement poses a significant barrier, the barrier
can be easily be circumvented; so it only causes harm.
Having an agreement in place for IRR data that contains PII,
Organisation or any non-routing information is fine with me. That data
has no value in router configuration automation pipelines anyway.
Kind regards,
Job
