Dear Denis
At RIPE 67 in Athens, the RIPE NCC agreed to take another look at the
implementation of RIPE Document ripe-563, "Abuse Contact Management in
the RIPE Database."
Two issues have been identified that are seen to be difficult to
handle with the current model - partitioned subnets within one
organisation and adding abuse contacts to more specifics for End
Users. The RIPE NCC has considered these two issues and found what we
believe to be practical solutions, available within the current model.
More information about these solutions and the implementation of
"abuse-c:" is available on RIPE Labs:
https://labs.ripe.net/Members/denis/suggestions-for-improving-abuse-handling
This topic will also be raised during the Anti-Abuse Working Group
session at RIPE 68 in Warsaw.
First of all thanks for the proposed solution. I would like to comment
both issues:
1. A solution to the subnet issue
I perceive this proposed solution as a way of making a lot of mess
whenever some customer marked with additional abuse-c leaves LIR.
2. A solution to the End User issue
I like this idea. However I'm not sure why at the third screen there is
RIPE-NCC-MNT mentioned, contrary to the LIR-MNT put on the fourth
screen.
