I think any organization that ceases to be multihomed has to return the ASN after a certain period of time - say 2 months. 2) I think it needs to be specifically stated that the two upstream ISPs must announce the ASN via BGP and must make that announcement to either the global Internet or to a well recognized exchange point. 3) The organization receiving the ASN is responsible for maintaining an up to date aut-num object in RIPE as well as creating route objects for all assigning prefixes with the stated ASN origin. -Hank
