[db-wg] RIPE Database Release 1.78 Deployed to Release Candidate Environment

Dear colleagues,

The RIPE NCC is pleased to announce the deployment of RIPE Database software release 1.78 to the Release Candidate (RC) environment.

Please note that the previous release candidate, 1.77, was rolled back because of an issue with concurrent updates that only became apparent in the production environment.

Release 1.78 includes a fix for this issue. Extensive automated tests have been added to prevent similar issues from happening again. This release includes all features and fixes from release 1.77.

In addition, release 1.78 of the RIPE Database software also includes a number of other improvements:
 = We added a dry-run option for the REST API
 = We improved the error message when creating an organisation object without and AUTO primary key
 = Fix for Issue #286: Pending create route requests are not removed when the route is created

Detailed release notes are published on the web site:
https://www.ripe.net/data-tools/db/release-notes/ripe-database-release-1.78

We invite all users of the RIPE Database to review the new release in the RC environment:

Please let us know if you find any issues. We plan to deploy this release to the production environment on Monday 23 February.

We look forward to any questions or comments you might have.

Kind regards,

Tim Bruijnzeels

Assistant Manager Software Engineering
RIPE NCC
