o The inetnum: and inet6num: objects are enhanced with an optional attribute "abuse-c:". The value of the attribute is a nic-handle: which must refer to an extant person: or role: object. There may be zero or more abuse-c: attributes in an inet*num: object.
I don't see any reason why abuse-c: should refer to person: or role: object. Simple email address(es) would be imho just enough...
i could live with that
Same here. Both would be fine.
From the user's viewpoint yes, from the viewpoint of having to maintain the objects, I'd prefer a reference, because if the mailbox changes, you just have to maintain 1 Object and not n (for arbitrary positive integers of n)
well an address like abuse@do.main seldomly changes. If someone is dumb enough to put in a personal e-mail address, well... Anyways, for cases like mergers ect. with Domains changing, i'd prefer the inital suggestion - using a *-c I don't really see the problem with creating another role-object if needed. Heck, i don't even see why mnt-irt: is considered too complicated :-) ==> It's 'abuse-c: <handle>' - not a 'abuse-to: <email>' (or something like that) for me -- ======================================================================== = Sascha Lenz SLZ-RIPE slz@baycix.de = = Network Operations = = BayCIX GmbH, Landshut * PGP public Key on demand * = ========================================================================
