There is a difference and I think, as has been pointed out, that the discussion is veering a little too much into ad hominem. So please, everyone, as always, robust discussion, but please discuss the topic, not people. Thanks all.

Hi Sander

Hello Denis,
Sorry Elvis but you are neither a software engineer nor a regular user inputting data into the RIPE Database. So your unsubstantiated statement of 'poor' does not carry much weight.
Excuse me, but you do not get to decide that a fellow working group member's contribution does not carry much weight. That is the working group chairs' job when deciding on consensus, and from experience I know that even the chairs only do that in very rare circumstances. Consensus is based on content and supporting arguments, not on whether you judge somebody worthy...
Cheers, Sander
