Anne,
Below is the draft list of local registries which will be published as agreed at the last RIPE meeting. Please check the contact details are correct and let us know if any changes are necessary.
Thanks for this list, which seems very useful to me. I have three questions regarding this list: 1. Reading from the text accompaning the list it is not clear to me when an organisation can be added to the list. In other words what are the criteria for being on the list. E.g., is it possible that FooBar, Inc., is added to this list as a Provider, without further info? 2. You say that some organizations appear on the list twice, since they have the Provider and the Non-Provider role. Well, in the list for NL I only see SURFnet once. Or did I misunderstand this thing? 3. This is more or less a feeling-issue (and *no*, I am not a native speaker), but SURFnet is listed as "Non-Service Provider". This sounds to me as "Provider of a Non-Service". Maybe another word could be used, such as "NIC of last resort" or "Default NIC". But again, I am not a native speaker.
