[connect-wg] BCOP for the use of IRR DBs in IXP RS - Last call

Hi

I think that a big problem with this document is that it is trying to be
BCOP without any practical operational deployment at all.

So far, it is a theoretical document that we are not sure is going to work
(for the reasons that we have pointed out.)

>More broadly this approach would discourage us from focusing on good
practices and instead compel us to document the status quo,

I do not think so, you can focus on doing the practices that you think are
good, prove that good and then you can propose them as BCOP.

Regards
