Hello,
Just to confirm Leo's observation.
For each RIPE document, you can find on our website in the metadata on
the righthand side in chronological order which previous versions were
updated by that version.
If the document was obsoleted by another document, the metadata will
also show that. In addition, the document itself will show "This
document is obsoleted by ripe-xxx".
See for example:
https://www.ripe.net/publications/docs/ripe-708
In the related pdf-version you can find the information which RIPE
document has been obsoleted by that document:
https://www.ripe.net/publications/docs/ripe-708/at_download/pdf
If you would find in any RIPE document some information missing, please
let me know in a direct message and I will follow up.
The RIPE Policy page has a chronological order. Other order mechanism
are available in the document store, for example to see all IPv6 related
documents.
https://www.ripe.net/publications/docs
I hope this clarifies.
Kind regards,
Marco Schmidt
Policy Officer
RIPE NCC

Leo, Open many RIPE-NNN documents which are old. You will not find anything
in it stating “Obsoleted by RIPE-XXX”.
Open similar RIPE-XXX document which obsoletes RIPE-NNN. You will not find anything in it stating “Obsoletes RIPE-NNN”.
I’m happy you were able to find an example where that works, but there are many examples where it doesn’t.
I have been looking through a selection of newer and older documents and
haven't yet found one without a meticulous history in the metadata panel on the
righthand side of the page. There might well be the occasional omission,
although I haven't seen any. If you have found some, letting the RIPE NCC staff
know so that they can fix them is the right thing to do. Just asserting that
there are many examples where there isn't a history is unhelpful.
Kind regards,
Leo Vegoda
