RIPE NCC keeps their own internal records on allocated/assigned address space. So, although you may modify anything you like in the RIPE Database, you'll get into conflicts with their internal records and that will probably trigger an auditing action from hostmasters. Not sure about "descr:" and "tech-c:" attributes, but "netname:" change will make inconsistency with internal NCC data for sure. Remember that notice when you get an assignment from NCC (if you want to combine more inetnums into one object, inform NCC ...). Finally, everything depends on your assignment window: if the inetnum covers address space smaller or equal to your assignment window - it's always better to delete the old object and create a new one for the same address range, for another customer and it's higly possible your action won't be audited, since that's a regular action. However, if the assignemnt exceeds your assignment window, it's better that you follow strict procedures: prepare the ripe-141 form for the new customer, get the approval, delete the old object, create a new object.
