Thats the wrong starting point.

If some resource holder is not willing to reduce abuse coming
from his networks, theres nothing we can do.
And it will not harm him to pubish his abuse contact in a central space,
hes not reding the abuse reports anyway ...

If they ARE willing, but have a heavy workload with these abuse reports,
whats about, if the resource holder is securing his networks to
reduce the abuse ?
This will reduce his work load and the mails he receive ASAP.
And if theres no more abuse originating from his networks,
he will not care, if his abuse address is beeing published at
a central space.
Once he maybe reaches a point, where he has no leaks in his
networks anymore and is very happy to receive reports as quick
as possible to close new security leaks ...


Kind regards, Frank
