[db-wg] ORG vetting redux

 Hi Ronald
I am sure the more searching you do you may find more cases like this. But you are still making the same point. We hear you. Can you suggest any improvements to the process that will address any of the cases you have already highlighted?

 I have a trivial little Perl program called "dupcount" that does exactly
what its name implies.  I ran it on a fresh copy of the database, as part
of a command pipeline as follows:

% gzcat ripe.db.gz | grep '^org-type:' | dupcount

Results were as follows:

 99651 org-type:      OTHER
 24055 org-type:      LIR
  1131 org-type:      Other
  1034 org-type:      other
    3 org-type:      OTher
    1 org-type:      RIR
    1 org-type:      IANA
    1 org-type:      WHITEPAGES
    1 org-type:      OTHEr

I gather from this that case should generally be ignored when parsing
this field value.

Would it also be appropriate to assume that LEGACY number resources have
generally been associated with ORG records of type OTHER?  Have any or all
of those ORGs ever been vetted in any way?

And what about number resources that are presently associated with no
ORG whatsoever, for example, the following ones?  I am having a bit of
trouble understanding how a <<void>> organization gets (or got) vetted
by NCC.  (I should perhaps clarify that of the following 120 ASNs,
fully 108 of them are listed as status: LEGACY, however that leaves
another 12 wih status: ASSIGNED, and for those, and also the LEGACY
ones, the vetting, if any, that has been applied seems to me to be a
at least a bit ambiguous.)
