[anti-abuse-wg] Seeking Input on the Future of the Anti-Abuse Working Group

Dear Markus

Thanks for this list. I'd love to see a bit more than best practices 
though. I'd like to see this group come up with recommendations of what 
RIPE can/should do to curb malicious behavior.

I think there are already a lot of groups that share info, so I'm not 
sure we need another one, but if members have a need for that, we could 
liaise with such existing groups. Shadowserver and FIRST come to mind. 
But again, people that want to do things probably already have this inf. 
We should figure out what to do with people who don't care.

Best
Serge
