Dear All, The procedure for obtaining a maintainer in RIPE database has been described in section 2.3.4 of RIPE-157 document, which is *the* database documentation. If you have any suggestions for how to make the database webpage http://www.ripe.net/ripencc/pub-services/db more user-friendly, we will be delighted to hear them.
