Even then the ASN/PI is assigned to his customer, not to him. Unless
he's being authorized by the "gone customer" to delete that stuff (and
tell RIPE about it, otherwise it's probably a "weird state"), he's
doing something "illegal" (to the system). It's not his ASN/PI, it's
the customer's. No matter thru which LIR the requests where tunneled.

Can NCC folks confirm/correct this view?
