[address-policy-wg] Post Ident / Post Brief

Hi,

the bigger issue I see with this change is, that there is no
RIPE-area-wide common post-ident. For the German Post-Ident it is the
requestor of identification who is in charge to initiate the post-ident
process and who is in charge to match the token returned to the right
customer. Even the name of the identified person is not necessarily
given on the confirmation receipt. As I think there are at least a dozen
of different identification services, each of them in the individual
country "well accepted", I think that the implementation of such service
would lead to a big workload for the RIPE-staff.

        people who championed 2007-01 envisioned it as means of turning
        the NCC into a databank of personal identity documents. 


    there are two separate issues to consider, firstly that the ripe ncc has a
    duty to authenticate PI holders to some degree of due diligence, and
    secondly how this is intertwined with the much more stringent legal
    requirements of resource certification.

    I don't see any particular reason not to accept post ident (and similar
    authentication schemes with legal recognition in their own countries) for
    the purposes of assignment of resources.  OTOH I could see how the ripe ncc
    would have trouble making a claim of certification without unambiguous
    formal legal authentication via e.g. photocopies of ID documents, notarised
    endorsements, etc.
