postal address in IRT objects
Colleagues I have started a discussion on the DB-WG mailing list about the usefulness (or not) of a mandatory postal address in the IRT object. As there are perhaps more CSIRT people on this mailing list I thought I would bring it to your attention. The discussion starts here https://www.ripe.net/ripe/mail/archives/db-wg/2022-July/007537.html Your opinions would be appreciated. cheers denis proposal author
Hej,
usefulness (or not) of a mandatory postal address in the IRT object.
If I can't reach someone by electronic media, I doubt I'd get better response to snail mail. Furthermore, purely virtual teams might not have a true physical location at all.

Hello, I see it as useful. Not all CSIRTs are "purely virtual teams". We do have headquarters and hence a postal address. I would say the majority of established CSIRTs has a postal address. I don't have a strong opinion if the postal address should be mandatory or optional, though. A letter (sent by post) might reach different people that might then call the attention of other folks that didn't read or reply to an e-mail message...
