    <p>Dear Jordi, <br>
    </p>
    <p>Just out of curiosity why has RIPE and ARIN refused to adopt the
      RPKI ROA and make it their responsibility that it is used by
      resource holder?. I will agree that RPKI ROA is a good tool to
      secure BGP routing, however I don't see as the responsibility of
      an RIR to implement it.</p>
    <p>My strong opinion is that any resource holder should be
      responsible for securing its resources and if RPKI ROA is the best
      way to prevent hijack, then it will enjoy patronage. Making it a
      job of AfriNIC, will possibly be going over board.</p>
    <p>Responding to my opening question, I believe RIPE and ARIN are
      not keen on accepting your arguments because they are mundane.
      This means resource holders should handle this issue, without
      making it a worry of the RIR.</p>
    <p>In this regard, AfriNIC should concentrate on handling other more
      important issues, hence this policy is not relevant.</p>
    <p><br>
    </p>
    <p>Simply</p>
    <p>Daniel<br>
    </p>
