Dear colleagues, The RIR technical coordination forum has discussed the following text in the proposal's introduction: The objective of this proposal is to establish basis of cooperation between RIRs/ISPs to test and *ensure* routability of new IANA allocations to RIRs. In the forum, I was reminded that 'ensuring routability' is not in accordance with RFC 2050. I believe that what we want is a standard process of testing a newly allocated block to help identify networks that are filtering the new block, allowing the concerned parties to contact these networks. To avoid the conflict with RFC 2050, perhaps it is better if the objective is to "test and promote" rather than "test and ensure" routability.
