Reasonable conjecture; implies that in this region we need to overcome our interesting legal situation, make things easy to use, and then do some significant promotion. >> You can clearly point to ARIN's legal treatment of the risks involved, >> but that is not applicable in the APNIC case.... > > it is hard to register in apnic, ask folk who have tried. the most > active folk are under NIRs, who are only now working on deployment. > apnic is not really promoting it. Ah, good to know (and reinforces potential ARIN issues beyond legal wrangling) >> You don't feel there's any correlation between RIPE's IRR approach and >> their RPKI success? > > that's the cooperative culture bit, actually interested in the net > running well. Presumably the NANOG community is also interested in keeping the net running well, so if ARIN can provide some reasonably usable services, that shouldn't be an issue.
