We have also used the service in order to find IP resources available for transfer in order to not having to rely on the constant spam from various entities about available resources. It’s in my opinion much better to have a listing service provided by RIPE where we on the receiving end of transfers can clearly see which LIR we are dealing with and whether the resources are available for permanent transfer or not, before reaching out to arrange a deal. Saves time, and avoids the need to deal with various IP brokers that may or may not do honest business (not insinuating any specific broker is bad, it’s just that I don’t know that). So I would be sad to see the service go and also wonder why a full re-implementation of it would be needed as it seems to be fulfilling it’s purpose today? It’s also just a matter of time until the remaining IPv4 resources are so few that people will have to push through an IPv6 implementation whether they want to or not, surely we could keep this simple but in my mind effective service online until then? — Johan Hedberg Senior Systems Engineer Mobile: +46 708 474186 www.citynetwork.eu | www.citycloud.com INNOVATION THROUGH OPEN IT INFRASTRUCTURE ISO 9001, 14001, 27001, 27015 & 27018 CERTIFIED > On 10 Jun 2020, at 13:44, David Knell <david.knell at telng.com> wrote: > > Hello, > > We used the listing service for reaching interested parties while taking offers.
