Recommendation for Impact Assessment

The impact assessment provided by the RIPE NCC should note any contact
method requirements specified in policy. It should also note where the
policy does not specify a contact method requirement.

The RIPE NCC might want to note the impact of enforcing policy
requirements when more user choice is offered at the database layer.

These seem to me to be sound recommendations. Following them may
reveal the need to develop revised policy, rather than just to
agree a new NWI.

RIPE has a tradition of finding a good balance between formality
and pragmatism; I expect that the WG and NCC will find the right
path in this case too.
