We were thinking of mid April, for two reasons: 1) This gives the working group enough time to comment. 2) While the RIPE NCC has finished the effort to ensure that the org-id (and name) are set up correctly for all INETNUM and INET6NUM objects, we are still finalising this work for AUT-NUM objects. We expect that we will finish this effort in about 6 weeks. For consistency it would be easiest to change this for all resource types simultaneously. Kind regards, Tim > > Kind regards, > > Job
