Yes, please *do so*.  Do not design something that is going to win a price
at a computer scientist conference - design something that is easy to work
with.

The current abuse-c: design is annoying, because it requires extra work
to get to the point of documenting what you want to document.  So people
(remember: we want *people* to use that, and put useful information in
there) are annoyed, and stop bothering.

I'm a bit more verbose about this, but if you ever wondered *why* abuse-c:
isn't the huge success people expected: this is part of the "why".  It is
way too annoying to use.

One of the early version of 2007-01 indeed covered legacy resource holders, 
and was killed in WG chairs last call - for precisely that reason.  The
final proposal that was accepted only covered resources given out by the
RIPE NCC.

Precisely my point.
