Simple whois question about Polish Telecom's inetnum objects without person/role references:
$ whois -T inetnum -r -i mnt-by TPNET |grep ^inetnum: |wc -l 201157
How about keeping the proposal as it is and just change from updating _all_ objects to just update the direct from RIPE allocated inet(6)num autnums.
That way there should be at least one accurate contact for every ip-address in the RIPE region. If subdelegations are wrong, there will be still a request for correcting the data and the inet(6)num, aut-num will still appear on the lists, but the pressure is smaller and it would help.
For example if the contact of a subdelegated range is wrong the abuse reports could be send to the delegation above, and above and so on.
How does that sound?
Correct me if I am wrong, but this is more or less the same what RIPE NCC is doing right now. Allocations are maintained by RIPE-NCC-HM-MNT, organisation objects with org-type field set to LIR are maintained by RIPE-NCC-HM-MNT. Those objects are filled with date coming from both internal database (used also for accounting purposes) and LIR portal. Every year LIRs are paying their invoices, which proves that both email and snail mail addresses provided as billing contacts are working.
