[anti-abuse-wg] Abuse Reporting Issues

Hi Frederik,

Who has an interest in a clean database? The sloppy Org or Ripe? The answer is Ripe, therefore it should also spend energy [via Ripe Ncc] in (making sure that Orgs are) keeping it clean.

Kids do not grow up themselves, it requires an active process. Organisations are not much different.

Well, that is probably more a sign of a sloppy organisation, it is up to the LIR to keep the ripedb up to date, this is not the role of RIPE. You probably dont expect RIPE to keep track of your old DNS-entrys and give you a phone-call if it seems that a customer-name is wrong do you?

We never get mail that says: "Ripe wants to confirm that you are still having Role X in your organisation. Click here to confirm.". A full-inbox bounce could trigger a phone call. Etc.  Ripe should charge money for not keeping records up to date.
