Dear Michael van Elst,
Could you please explain the problem? The proposed protection mechanism with the RIP-NCC-PN-NONE-MNT is targeted only at individuals who have unreferenced and unmaintained person objects and want to protect their objects in the database.
It is not supposed to be used by a maintainer from the published list.
Sorry if there was a misunderstanding. It's not about protecting entries. I am responsible for a huge part of the to-be-deleted entries (XLINK-MNT) and I would really _welcome_ a list of the then deleted entries belonging to XLINK-MNT to synchronize this change with our own databases. It would be less of a problem if RIPE wouldn't re-assign handles. But as it is, our only way is to validate each and every database entry to find out what had been deleted. Greetings, -- i.A.
