We can publish ROAs immediately for aggregate address blocks that we
have been allocated if all routes are originated only by our network.
But for our address allocations within which we have further assigned
sub-blocks to our customers as PA space where we allow multihoming
(e.g. within 12.0.0.0/8), we need to offer our downstream customers
the ability to publish ROAs for their specific portions first before
we publish a ROA for the aggregate, or else we'll make their
announcements become invalid.

Setting up that ability for our customers to publish ROAs for the PA
space they receive from us will require tight integration with our
customer software support systems, and perhaps also with our own
certificate authority -- thus the delegated model.

BTW: Alex, do you know where one might be able to get RPKI CA
software? :-)

Thanks.
