Howdy All,
While I agree that it might be politically entertaining to let this one blow up as a demonstration of how ARIN conducts business, this list of networks includes too many small networks who likely don't have a savy networking engineering team.
In my opinion, they are not acceptable collateral damage to demonstrate ARIN's lack of regard for the community in shutting this down without a transition plan for the RPSL objects, so as one of the admins for the ALTDB IRR database, I've taken it upon myself to create proxy registrations for all of these prefixes in ALTDB.
While I won't discuss the issue of proxy registrations, the key here is the responsiveness in removing such proxy registrations if/when asked to do so.
Like any proxy registration, asset owners are welcome to contact the maint POC, and if no response from them, db-admin@altdb.net, requesting that stale records be deleted, but please also note that
If you as the maint POC is willing to commit to responsiveness in doing that, great.
ALTDB automatically deletes any route objects which conflict with a publishes RPKI ROA, so the most effective way to clean up stale IRR records is to publish RPKI ROAs for your address space.
Which only would clear up proxy regs with wrong origin AS, not with right origin AS but wrong maintainer. Rubens
