email's disappeared from RDAP output

Hi everybody, I was just re-running some tests internally within bgp.tools and I've noticed that the RDAP responses from RIPE no longer include the email address of the person object. For example I used to (and expected) to get the email address in the object for https://rdap.db.ripe.net/entity/BC6775-RIPE, but it seems to have been removed from the output at some point. That does not appear to be a way to log in to authenticate trustworthiness of RDAP responses, is there any other way to get this information? I can see this information on the RIPE website ( https://apps.db.ripe.net/db-web-ui/lookup?source=ripe&key=BC6775-RIPE&type=… ) but I do not want to scrape that, and this information is incredibly useful for helping users onboard ( with a trustworthy email address ) to services like bgp.tools. Is this an intended change? Have I done something silly? All of the above ;) ? By looking at the release info I can see it was added in November (#1333) Thanks Ben
