AW: [db-wg] Call for agenda items, DB-WG Meeting during RIPE53, Amsterdam

[Copying routing-wg.  Brief background; this is about relaxing the 
restrictions on creating/modifying route: objects in the RIPE database, 
as previously discussed in the threads starting at the following messages:

Right.  This came up before the Istanbul meeting, then during the 
meeting it was mentioned again (in the routing WG), and Andrei talked 
briefly about the current scheme.  However, there was pretty much no 
feedback from the floor or via jabber, so it was decided that it would 
be moved to the mailing list.

There was a brief discussion on the list, but that fizzled out too.

If there is enough desire to do this, then somebody needs to write a 
document.  I guess that initially it could be a RIPE document, but 
eventually it should aim to update RFC2725 section 9.9, so maybe it 
would be good to have it as close to internet-draft format as possible 
from the start.

I'm open to having another slot during the Amsterdam meeting if there is 
interest.  As I see it, that could be one of two things:

1) A quick call for help in editing the document to create a proposal.

2) If we've got a draft of a proposal by then, discussion on it.

Either way, we need to have someone willing to talk and an idea of how 
long you want to talk for! :-)

All the best,
Rob
