[anti-abuse-wg] the mandatory abuse field

I think you need to first develop 2 tables (working with other 
groups/RIR's).  Across the top is the RIR's.  The first tables should 
list the data fields and the second table list the queries and what data 
elements they return.  Then you can see what the RIR's all have in 
common and explain the differences/reasons in the elements of the 
table.  Then look at what is common among the RIR's and come up with a 
standard.  Then you can focus on the individual elements and decide what 
to do with the eventual goal being a common standard among all RIR's.

To get over the opt-in/opt-out law differences you could consider 
allowing "private" instead the real data, allow a link to a form web 
page rather than a contact person, or demand an opt-in agreement when 
the data is collected, etc.
