Martin -

ARIN has already taken responsibility by making available authenticated IRR and 
PRKI services as sought by the community, and I concur that individual parties 
are also taking responsibility by placing their routing information in these 
and similar services.

ARIN will encourage such migration, but the responsibility ultimately lies with 
those with the data in the unauthenticated IRR system.

Thanks,

Hi John,

It seems that you are trying to abdicate responsibility, but at the end of the 
day those individual parties are placing information in "better" routing 
registries such as RPKI that you can leverage to clean up the "lesser" 
ARIN-NONAUTH routing registry. So those individuals are taking their 
responsibility, and I am wondering - when will ARIN start taking their cue?

Best regards,
Martijn

You suggest "ARIN can manage cleanup of a select few objects” but alas, 
responsibility for proper routing entry hygiene lies with the individual 
parties that have placed information in the routing registry.

Decisions on ARIN services are ultimately under the authority of the ARIN Board 
of Trustees, who are the elected representatives of the ARIN membership.   More

Dear John,

Thank you for extending the deadline with another 6 months. Obviously 6
months amidst a global pandamic would never be enough time. :-)

Both John Sweeting [1] and myself [2] assert there are tens of thousands
of objects for which the relationship between the object's existence and
the state of related routes in the BGP default-free zone routing are not
fully understood.

It appears ARIN has choosen to ignore a specific community suggestion:
please first prove ARIN can manage cleanup of a select few objects,
before proceeding to deprecate the entire ARIN-NONAUTH database.

I'm not convinced mere 'community outreach' is an appropriate and
substantive response to the anteriority of 'Legacy Holders' who might
depend on both ARIN's reverse DNS service and ARIN's (Non Authoritative)
IRR service.

I personally would like to see ARIN postpone any decision on whether to
sunset the ARIN-NONAUTH database in favor of first applying
community-recognised object clean-up mechanisms, and then based on the
'lessons learned' from such a cleanup process, inform future go/no-go
decisions.

Can you share with me what the process would be to appeal the decision
made here and how course can changed?

Kind regards,

Job

FYI - Outcome of the community consultation on the Future of ARIN’s

Begin forwarded message:

From: ARIN <i...@arin.net<mailto:i...@arin.net><mailto:i...@arin.net>>
Subject: [ARIN-consult] ACSP Consultation 2021.1: Future of ARIN’s 
Unauthenticated IRR is now Closed
Date: 15 March 2021 at 4:27:04 PM EDT
To: 
<arin-cons...@arin.net<mailto:arin-cons...@arin.net><mailto:arin-cons...@arin.net>>

I would like to thank everyone who provided valuable feedback during this 
consultation on the future of ARIN’s unauthenticated IRR. Input provided by the 
community is a vital part of our planning processes at ARIN, and after 
reviewing responses to the consultation, we are making a few significant 
adjustments in our path forward.

One concern raised during the consultation was that six months was not enough 
time for organizations that currently depend on data in ARIN’s unauthenticated 
IRR to make changes to their systems. As a result, we will be extending the 
availability of ARIN’s non-authenticated IRR for an additional six months with 
final retirement set for 31 March 2022.

The second major suggestion was that ARIN conduct proactive engagement to 
notifying customers who currently use our unauthenticated IRR. We have already 
initiated this outreach, and for the next twelve months, we will continue this 
direct outreach to customers who have records in ARIN’s non-authenticated IRR 
to inform them of their options and provide necessary assistance.

We will also provide regular reminders and updates to our community and 
organizations making use of the outdated and non-authenticated IRR data stream 
so they can be ready for when we cease publishing the ARIN-NONAUTH data stream. 
These reminders leading up to the retirement of ARIN’s non-authenticated IRR 
will include statistics on the number of records remaining in that system and 
related routing coverage.

Thank you again to those who provided valuable feedback on this consultation.
