Hi Jordi, Aftab and all,

Thanks for your support. It's a known post implementation operational issue. We discussed it internally and agreed to sync APNIC Whois code with the RIPE NCC and AfriNIC Whois Databases, and report the details at APNIC 52.

Regards
Sunny

Hi Jordi,

    I think we need to get clear responses from the secretariat if
    “anything” requires a policy update, or it is just implementation
    details that they can adjust without working out a policy proposal.


I have the same opinion.

    In my opinion, the policy text + the explanations/presentation
    provided by the authors + the “additional information” section of
    the policy proposal, was providing the information to avoid this
    type of issues.


Yes, It wasn't mentioned in the policy that a new role object should be created and filled with IRT object's attributes. I don't see any reason for an update in the policy, it's an operational issue BUT if the Secretariat believes that they can't make any changes and require policy support then please let us know.

    Of course, the secretariat could take different implementation
    approaches, but the fact that we worked the details in the
    “additional information” was precisely because we foresee some
    possible issues and we suggested some implementation details to
    avoid them. I recall I’ve already sent a couple of emails to
    respond to some of those issues after a presentation of George,
    they should be archived. Actually, I think one of those emails
    that I’ve sent was not responded. I was asking there if some of
    the issues require an update of the policy via a new proposal.
    Could the secretariat take a look and tell us?

    Trying to summarize:

    1)IRT was meant to (optionally) disappear at some point, or be an
    “alias” of abuse-c.

    2)Initially it is expected that the “main” abuse-c is created as a
    duplicate of the existing IRT.

I agree with the latter part.

    3)Each organization need to define if they want additional abuse-c
    for different set of resources. For example, you may have a
    different abuse handling team for IPv6 and IPv4, or even for
    different IPv4 blocks; you may want to have a customer-assigned
    block to be handled by the customer abuse team, etc.

Well, NO. Let's stick to what was proposed in prop-125 :)

    4)I don’t think Country and Phone should be mandatory, but of
    course, instead of bogus data should be empty, if no data is
    available. Note that I’m also not opposed to have them with
    mandatory Country and Phone, but the full idea of the validation
    process is to have a “working email” so if the working email being
    validated doesn’t work, the policy escalate to other contacts and
    those contacts, should already have the right country and phones,
    right?

Country and Phone number fields are mandatory as per the APNIC whois policy and can't be left blank, that's why they are filled with ZZ (ISO-3166 code for user defined country) and +000000000 as phone number. Validation is not an issue here as the email address attribute exists in both objects and has been verified.
