Thanks for the comment, Jian Zhang.

Just as a clarification question, are you refering to this part of the proposal?

1. "Appendix: Details of flat file view of a zone" be removed from APNIC-103-v001 as it is no longer needed.

If you are concerned about removal from the Appendix, it is simply because the practice described here will no longer be valid once we transfer to REST/XML interface (which Terry informed us on nir-system ML). It has no actual impact on its own.

...or you perhaps have some other concerns? Just trying to understand the background behind your suggestion :-).

Hi everybody: Should we add something like: APNIC will give notice to NIRs before a certain time of deadline of removing flat file?

prop-054: NIR operational policy document revision

Dear colleagues

This is the final call for comments on policy proposal prop-054, 'NIR operational policy document revision'.

This proposal was presented at APNIC 25 and was accepted by consensus.

The APNIC Secretariat will provide further details in the near future that address concerns about ensuring that a documented history of reverse DNS delegation methods can be tracked.

The APNIC Secretariat and NIRs have agreed to discuss comfortable time frames for the NIRs to implement any new reverse DNS delegation methods on a case-by-case basis before new methods are adopted by APNIC and the NIRs.

The proposal has been submitted to the NIR SIG mailing list for an eight-week discussion period. At the end of that period, if consensus appears to have been achieved, the NIR SIG Chair will ask the Executive Council to endorse the proposal for implementation.

• Send all comments and questions to: sig-nir@apnic.net
• Deadline for comments: 29 April 2008

Proposal details

It is proposed that:

1. Section 3.4 of APNIC-103-v001 be updated to include a reference to reverse DNS delegations in ip6.arpa.

2. The two processes for delegating reverse zones specified in section 3.4 of APNIC-103-v001 be replaced with the following two processes:

   1. Automated

      Reverse DNS zones may be managed using the currently supported automated process documented at:

        Reverse DNS delegations resource guide
        http://www.apnic.net/services/dns_guide.html
      
      
      

   2. Manual

      Reverse DNS delegations may be managed using MyAPNIC.

3. "Appendix: Details of flat file view of a zone" be removed from APNIC-103-v001 as it is no longer needed.
