We do this in many other places, it's called voluntary norms for responsible behaviour, and is seen as a great tool to improve things. Happy to explain more if there is an interest.
It's not like these norms do not exist today - abuse contacts have to be provided already today. Responsible ISPs read these mailboxes and act upon them. Forcing everybody through a "you must click here to validate your abuse contact, otherwise bad things will happen to your resources" cycle in the vague hope that this is something irresponsible ISPs will fail to do so (or that it will magically turn them into responsible ISPs) is pure wishful thinking. I have better things to do with my time than jump through hoops that do not serve an effect besides "look, we *are* doing something! better than nothing!". No, something needs to be provably *effective* before being *forced* on everybody. Gert Doering -- NetMaster -- have you enabled IPv6 on something today...? SpaceNet AG Vorstand: Sebastian v.
