There are 2128 AUT-NUM objects with source RIPE-NONAUTH. Do we want these to be able to authorise the creation of hierarchical AS-SET objects when we don't know who maintains the AUT-NUM objects?
Another suggestion. There are 1361 short named AS-SET objects that don't have any 'members' or 'mbrs-by-ref' attributes. In other words they are operationally empty objects. (This includes AS-AMAZON.) We could introduce an automated cleanup process similar to the way we remove unreferenced PERSON and ROLE objects. If an AS-SET object remains operationally empty for 90 days it will be automatically deleted. This would include hierarchical objects. The hierarchical objects can easily be recreated by the ASN maintainers at any time if they are needed later. This gets around the problem of who has the authority to remove rogue objects. It becomes a database cleanup operation. Any thoughts? cheers denis co-chair DB-WG -- To unsubscribe from this mailing list, get a password reminder, or change your subscription options, please visit: https://lists.ripe.net/mailman/listinfo/db-wg
