Please read the legal statement from the NCC I linked to. You are contradicting it. If you have better legal advice than the RIPE NCC's own lawyers then please contact the NCC.
I *have* taken legal advice and it does not contradict the NCC statement at all. According to Regulation 44/2001 http://eur-lex.europa.eu/LexUriServ/LexUriServ.do?uri=CELEX:32001R0044:EN:NO... a judgment from a member state must be declared enforceable in the member state where it applies. This is pretty automatic, certainly not very complicated. Once the declaration of exequatur is issued, it'll have the same force as a dutch judgment which the NCC will (must) comply with. Note this is civil law, not criminal.
I just read the Regulation you mentioned but I fail to see how this would even apply to anything mentioned in this discussion...
Ah, ok. But since your assumption is invalid (there is no default, and the quick-start examples which would probably be used for such a "lazy default" are completely different from what you assume) then your case isn't very interesting to discuss any further.
There may not be a default *yet*, but there will be and it will be "drop if invalid/missing" because that is much easier to understand ifor the decision-makers than localprefs, metrics, etc.
Ok, now you are making even more unfounded assumptions. Please stop that. Sander
