Agreed on the "spirit" of what you have to say. I also think that there would need to a mention of something that states that this should be done within the limits of the law in Holland.

OK, based on your and other comments, I agree that the word "immediate" is inappropriate in (a). Some time scale should be included, else we will end up in a place where "tomorrow" is the timescale. "as soon as practical within the constraints of acceptable practise and law" perhaps ?
I think the most disappointing aspect of this situation is that the RIPE NCC management team and board aren't leading this discussion and that they themselves have not yet realised that the situation as it stands is not fair to those members who only want registration services.
