@fosdem I was asked privately for the "how", and figured a public reply makes sense

ripe.net/publications/docs/rip is the policy.

Fun fact: The extra time around an event used to be 7 days, and this was distilled pain as I had to chase upstreams to update sessions, filters, etc and usually needed to escalate through to last level support

Before automation and the Cloud, a new announcement took days to weeks by default

So I got the policy changed and extended to 1 month :)
