<br>
For many years people have been asking for a way to assign a whole<br>
allocation without having to create 2 smaller assignments. The<br>
situation is more relevant now with so many /24 allocations. After the<br>
RIPE NCC rejected the idea of a dual primary key, for technical<br>
reasons, there were two options on the table. Making the "status:"<br>
attribute multiple or creating a new status value 'ALLOCATED-ASSIGNED<br>
PA'. No one has objected to either of these options. The co-chairs<br>
therefore recommend the option put forward by the RIPE NCC to add a<br>
new status value 'ALLOCATED-ASSIGNED PA'. Of the two options, this is<br>
probably the simplest and likely to cause less problems with user's<br>
scripts that parse objects.<br>
<br>
If there are no objections to this, the co-chairs now ask the RIPE NCC<br>
to produce an impact/implementation report to add this new status<br>
value and include the business rules to restrict it's use. We will<br>
then seek a final approval from the community on the report.<br>
<br>
