[anti-abuse-wg] Update on Impact Analysis for 2019-03, “BGP Hijacking is a RIPE Policy Violation”

Dear colleagues,

We would like to give you an update on our impact analysis for the
policy proposal 2019-03, “BGP Hijacking is a RIPE Policy Violation”.

After feedback from the initial Discussion Phase, the proposers have
created a second version of the proposal that will move forward to the
Review Phase.

As per the Policy Development Process (PDP), the RIPE NCC must perform
an impact analysis on the proposal and publish this before the Review
Phase can begin. We usually aim to finish our analysis within four weeks.

In this case, our review has taken much longer than normal. This is
because the proposal creates a completely new process within the RIPE
NCC, with a number of operational, legal and communications
implications. The proposal also outlines detailed steps for this process
that have to be checked for consistency and feasibility.

We are almost finished and expect this to be ready soon. The WG Chairs
will then work with the proposers to determine when the new version of
the policy should be published (along with our impact analysis) so that
the Review Phase can start.

Kind regards,

Marco Schmidt
Policy Officer
RIPE NCC
