Oleg,
...
I'm not opposed to the 1AS = 1CA idea. It's just that in my mind RPKI
associates with IP space holders, not AS operators, because this is
how we do RPKI on RIR level. And on this level we already have more
distinct IP space holders than the number of active AS. I don't know
much about LIR to end user level, maybe the number of CAs there will
be insignificant.
The RPKI is about who holds both sets of resources: addresses and AS#s.
So, yes, as an RIR issuing certs
for address space, the focus is on address space holders. When we
discuss using AS#'s to estimate the
number of CAs it is just because that seems like a reasonable estimator,
not because it is the basis
for the management of address space.
I am curious, though. When RIPE acts as a CA on behalf of 1300+ entities
with address space, have you
included the AS#s in the CA certs you issued, when the address space
holders have AS#'s from RIPE?
