Despite the associated risk, we are happy to install such checks if RIPE requests them, but are this time are processing them as we agreed to do so – which is whenever we receive correctly formatted and properly signed requests from them. (You should inquire to RIPE for more detail regarding their future intentions in this regard.)
Already did, thanks. :) Meanwhile, one could make a legitimate argument that even absent specific guidance from RIPE, ARIN should have a sufficient level of concern for the health of the larger Internet to consider unilateral action here. At least in the form of delaying implementation until some human coordination takes place.
We’ll process RIPE’s requests in whatever manner they direct, as it is their customers that are affected by whatever decision they make in this regard.
I'll let others chime in on whether they they think that's a reasonable response. I've already said my piece. Meanwhile, my offer to help y'all fix your DNS was a sincere one. Feel free to hit me up off list. Doug
