Technical Summary
This document specifies how to augment the Routing Policy
Specification Language (RPSL) inetnum: class to refer specifically to
prefixlen files which are comma-separated values (CSV) files used to
specify end-site prefix lengths. This document also describes an
optional scheme that uses the Resource Public Key Infrastructure
(RPKI) to authenticate the prefixlen files.
Working Group Summary
Was there anything in the WG process that is worth noting?
For example, was there controversy about particular points
or were there decisions where the consensus was
particularly rough?
From the Shepherd's Report:
Four people and a reviewer commented, all favorably
and
No major controversy, minor points all resolved.
Document Quality
Are there existing implementations of the protocol? Have a
significant number of vendors indicated their plan to
implement the specification? Are there any reviewers that
merit special mention as having done a thorough review,
e.g., one that resulted in important changes or a
conclusion that the document had no substantive issues? If
there was a MIB Doctor, Media Type, or other Expert Review,
what was its course (briefly)? In the case of a Media Type
Review, on what date was the request posted?
Again, from the Shepherd's report:
RIPE NCC says they'll implement it:

A large mail provider has informally told me they will use this information
to enable IPv6 mail.
