I think the idea is that RIPE::AS-65534:AS-EXAMPLE addresses AS-65534:AS-EXAMPLE object in the RIPE database. Is there reasons to allow to have both RIPE::AS-65534:AS-EXAMPLE and AS-65534:AS-EXAMPLE in the single RIPE database? ________________________________________ Hi Alexander, That is what I'm saying: I agree, one name needs to point to the other, so that we don't have two objects in the database, only one object. I just wasn't clear about how the pointing would work and if it would affect anything else in the DB beyond get request (like create or delete requests). But I guess there will only every be objects called "AS-65534:AS-EXAMPLE" in the DB (as per my original email to the list), "RIPE::" would be stripped from the front of the query if present, and stripped from responses if the query comes from a legacy client (as per your suggestion).
