[db-wg] email's disappeared from RDAP output

Hi everybody,

I was just re-running some tests internally within bgp.tools and I've
noticed that the RDAP responses from RIPE no longer include the email
address of the person object. For example I used to (and expected) to
get the email address in the object for
https://rdap.db.ripe.net/entity/BC6775-RIPE, but it seems to have been
removed from the output at some point.

That does not appear to be a way to log in to authenticate
trustworthiness of RDAP  responses,  is there any other way to get
this information?  I can see this information on the RIPE website  (
https://apps.db.ripe.net/db-web-ui/lookup?source=ripe&key=BC6775-RIPE&type=person
) but I do not want to scrape that, and this information is incredibly
useful for helping users onboard ( with a trustworthy email address )
to services like bgp.tools.

Is this an intended change? Have I done something silly? All of the above ;) ?

By looking at the release info I can see it was added in November (#1333)

Thanks
Ben
