[db-wg] new NWI? - was: mntner object updates by mail

I also would like the work to deprecate ASN auth for ROUTE creation,
and the associated foreign object tagging to distinct source: work to
be a discrete item (or pair of items) and not "glommed" into a
collection of other things.

Because there are two other RIR who run variants of the RIPE-NCC code,
we have downstream consequential issues in the integration of patches
into our own codebase (we're forked. it turned out to be too hard to
maintain a single code tree) and its simpler if this stuff is done
logistically in smaller tractable chunks.

cheers
