[dns-wg] Sunsetting ns.ripe.net - new domain objects can no longer reference ns.ripe.net

Dear colleagues,

On 6 June, we announced an updated schedule for the retirement of the
"ns.ripe.net" secondary DNS service for LIRs. In this updated
schedule, the first step was to stop accepting delegation requests
with the name server "ns.ripe.net" in them. We have therefore adjusted
our reverse DNS checking process to reject new delegation requests
with "ns.ripe.net".

If you are using this secondary service, you may also begin an orderly
transition away from it, by updating the NS records in your zones, and
then updating your domain objects in the RIPE Database, to remove
"nserver" attributes containing "ns.ripe.net".

Later this week, we will send out emails to users of the service, with
a link to our RIPE Labs article, and instructions for stopping the use
of this service.

If you have any questions, please email dns at ripe.net.

Regards,

Paul de Weerd
