Hi Andrei,

Back in Febuary, we were proposed to test the new robot by emailing to
<auto-rip at ripe.net>, which I did. After a few adjustments, it came out
fine, including PGP auth ("in line" style).

Can you clarify the above statement.

Some 2h30m ago, I sent a update request to <rpsl-dbm at ripe.net> to update
our AS8297 & AS-GIEUROPE. No response from the robot yet, and no visible
change on rpsl.ripe.net.
