Hi Gert, Gert Doering wrote: [...]
Right now, there are two different shades of "PI colour" - "real PI" and "not really real PI". The first shade has the full obligations and protection of 2007-01 - namely, a contractual relationship (via a sponsoring LIR) with the NCC that clearly identifies who has "rights" to that prefix. The other shade is also labeled "PI", but whether or not contracts exist, and who is the legitimate holder, is less well defined.
Can you please expand on this? What are the risks that registrants of "not really real PI" face? Andrea's slide included a bullet stating that: "Many LIRs do not have contact with ASSIGNED PI customers anymore" Should I understand that to mean that there is a risk the LIR could take back the assignment? Kind regards, Leo Vegoda
