Dear colleagues,

The RIPE NCC is pleased to announce that we will deploy a new release
of the RIPE Database to the TEST Database environment on Thursday, 31
October 2013. The release is scheduled for production deployment on
Thursday, 12 November 2013. Detailed information about the new release,
including dates and information about the changes, can be found at:
https://www.ripe.net/data-tools/db/release-notes/ripe-database-release-1.70

Of special note in this release is the inclusion of "pending route
authentication". This is an alternative and simplified way of
authorising route object creation. Two separate updates for a single
route/route6 object are treated as one create request. This has no
impact on users who still submit a complete route object with all
authorisations included.

If you have any questions or comments, we look forward to hearing them.

Regards,

Denis Walker
