Alexander Holding meetings with LEA is a good idea in order to help them understand what we all do as well as to understand their concerns. Demanding that they register etc., would make such meetings problematic. So I disagree with you fundamentally.

Seems i'v mistaken, and Openness and Transparency are no longer essencial values for RIPE NCC. No gap could be briged if LEAs stays anonymous. Breaking openness and transparency for comfort of some doubtful officers - is really bad idea. Why i ask for LEA deanonymisation? Read ECHR cases against Russia on tortures (and other abuses) by all kind of LEAs. It would be really pity, if later appears, that RIPE NCC have met some of such abusers. Regards, Alexander P.S. As we say in Internet: "pics, or never happened" P.P.S. Also, "Once cop always cop", even if it tries to infiltrate into engeneering world. As we seen, successfully protecting interests of cops, rather than interests of Community. Sent via RIPE Forum -- https://www.ripe.net/participate/mail/forum
