As far as I can see from a quick scan of rfc2928, it refers to "registries"
only in terms of the RIRs and not as local IRs or other customers of the RIRs.
Thus, I can only assume that restriction is the RIPE NCCs interpretation of
the criteria.

I intend to raise this issue at the LIR WG (which I co-chair) at RIPE40 in
Prague in October.  Any clarification from RIPE NCC staff prior to RIPE40
would be appreciated.
