[Xorp-hackers] RPKI and XORP

Hello,

	My name is Arturo Servin and I am working in LACNIC (one of the 5 Regional Internet Registries).

	In the RIR we are working in developing the software for RPKI (Resource PKI) that will certify Internet Resources (IPs and ASs). Our software will create and sign certificates that will be used by routers to verify the origin of the route. I do not want to extend too much on the topic but you can check the IETF work on:

https://datatracker.ietf.org/wg/sidr/

	Now, there are not many implementations in router vendors to use RPKI (We are only aware of some Cisco software). We think that it would be very interesting to see RPKI routing protocol (rtr  https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-sidr-rpki-rtr/) working in Open Source implementations, we have recently contacted Quagga and BIRD dev teams (not very successfully) and now we are contacting you. Unfortunately we do not have many resources (in LACNIC) to work ourselves on a developing RPKI for an OpenSource implementation in a full time basis, but we would really like to work with some of you sharing our expertise in RPKI and to contribute some code too (at least a bit).

	Are you interested in developing RPKI in XORP?

	Any comments?

Regards,
-Arturo Servin
