 Hello,

I think you might be misunderstanding how mandatory contact information works.
As you can see, the mandatory e-mail field is set to nobody@accelerated.de
When abuse-c e-mail will become mandatory, their abuse-c e-mail will continue to be nobody@accelerated.de.

As everybody knows, the proposal "Abuse Contact Management in the RIPE NCC Database"
has already been ratified/accepted more than a month ago, but still some RIPE workers
seem not to know this fact:

https://www.ripe.net/ripe/policies/proposals/2011-06
 Authors: Tobias Knecht, abusix
 Proposal Version: 3.0 06 June 2012
 Accepted: 17 September 2012
 Working Group: Anti-Abuse Working Group
 Proposal type: New
 Policy term: Indefinite
 New RIPE Document: ripe-563

Under §1.0 it says
"The "abuse-c:" will be mandatory for all aut-nums.
Due the hierarchical nature of IP address objects, at least every direct allocated
inetnum and inet6num needs to have an "abuse-c:". Inherited objects might have their
own "abuse-c:" attribute or they will be covered by the higher level objects.
"

Today I got the following reply from RIPE (I removed the name of the sender with XXX,
but can give it if required). Why is this person at RIPE still saying this:
 "At this moment is the 'abuse-c' not yet a mandatory field.
 There is currently a discussion on our mailing list in order to make this a
 mandatory field, but this policy proposal is still under discussion."

???
An official from RIPE please explain to the community what this RIPE person
means with such a statement...:

Dear madam/sir,

Thank you for your e-mail.

At this moment is the 'abuse-c' not yet a mandatory field. There is
currently a discussion on our mailing list in order to make this a
mandatory field, but this policy proposal is still under discussion.

You can find the contact details that we have on file at:
