Please show me the Russian ISP showing their clients in RIPE DB ;) Most of 
them don't, as I can see.

Most of major clients really are friends and don't change connection to anyone 
else. But some is just clients just using service - and will switch to others 
if there will be an [financial] reason. Having addressing database (with 
contact person, especially technical) there is easy to do this.

So it seems to be good for you to share commertial information of ISP, and it 
should not be secret. Escalating the situation: will we need the 
connection-price: field in database? Why?
