Hi, I would just like to remind everyone that the issue that what the draft RFC is attempting to solve is purely a unified way for resource holders to say where the addresses are located. That is it, it is not attempting to actually check where the addresses are, just that it is actually the resource holder that is giving you this information. Additionally, the only thing being discussed here which is relevant is "should we have a geofeed attribute that accepts a URL, or just a remarks attribute with a value prefixed with Geofeed?" "remarks: Geofeed https://example.com/geofeed.csv" vs "geofeed: https://example.com/geofeed.csv" That is it, other things than that are not relevant to the db-wg, and should go on other relevant mailing lists at the IETF or whoever is coordinating this. - Cynthia On Wed, Oct 7, 2020 at 9:06 PM Matthias Merkel via db-wg <db-wg at ripe.net> wrote: > A RIPE hosted geolocation feed may indeed provide some advantages, however > in my opinion this should instead be based on data supplied by the LIR (or > end user for PI assignments), as it would be using an external geolocation > feed, instead of automatically via Atlas.
