Re: [sig-policy] Comments on prop-059-v001: Using the Resource Public Key Infrastructure to construct validated IRR data

it is assumed that they will register as they wish.  the point here is
that the *relying party* chooses which version to give priority.

if the registrant did not intend the rpki/roa to be used they did not
have to issue/sign it.

> + How can we confirm that ROA is based on authentic RPKI?

see 200kg of documents on how the rpki works.  essentially, you have
trust anchor for iana and the roa can validate up to that trust anchor.

> Could we really not change the route object at all?

the route: object in the overlay irr generated from the rpki roa can
only be changed by the prefix owner by changing the roa.

the route: object in the apnic or whichever irr segments can be changed
by the normal means for those irr segments.

giving a relying party the option to prefer a more strongly validatable
binding of prefix to origin asn.
