From: John Curran <jcurran () arin net>With respect to updating Whois, it is true that many ISPs do not update their sub-delegations until applying for their next IPv4 block. Whether this is also the case with IPV6 or not remains to be seen, but given IPv6 allocation size, it would not be good.What is going to make folks change their behavior?
One would hope that industry self-regulation and the small amount of self-interest would suffice here, but it's hard to be optimistic. Even if keeping this information up to date is commonly recognized as a best practice, our collectively track record in community pressure for compliance to best practices is uneven at best; i.e. I can imagine someone saying "Um, can we at least use MD5 on this session" or "You're giving us a lot of needless deaggregates with the same path info" but can't quite believe that "We happened to review all your address blocks and noticed you don't have a lot of the subassignments listed" is going to be a frequent phrase heard in peering discussions... Net result is that we may just have to live with lax practices by some, since many other potential solutions have real potential for consequences worse than the problem itself.
