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

Marco,

Thanks for this.

Colleagues, the Co-Chairs and the authors of 2019-03 have been discussing how best to progress this in the fairest way for the whole community.

Given the length of time it has taken, understandably, to prepare the Impact Analysis and the fact that we are now deep into the summer in Europe, we do not feel that now is the right time to re-commence the discussion. 

With this in mind, it has been decided that we are going to pause this for a few weeks and the IA and next version of the policy will be released, and so the Review Phase will start, at the beginning of September this year. This is unusual, but we feel this is the way to ensure the best discussion can take place amongst the widest group of interested parties.

Thank you all for your discussion on 2019-03 so far and we look forward to more robust input in September.

Thanks,

Brian
Co-Chair, RIPE AA-WG
