Hi Randy,

Thanks for participating in that discussion with me earlier.

My feeling now is that I'd rather not see RPKI-related standards
cluttered with this.  If that means that the 10.0.0.0/8 folks have
some homework to do prior to publishing a ROA for 10.0.0.0/8 itself,
then so be it.

(While this topic did come up just recently in another venue, I have
not been requesting it or even wishing it were so -- just
acknowledging that some of us providers will have some work to do.)

Thanks.

                                                Jay B.
