[lir-wg] Re: NCC#2002069654 HMQUESTION

Dear Peter,

Thank you for your reply.

In answer to your questions;
* AS9179-MNT (me / my company) is the current but out-of-date maintainer on an
* object. Without deleting the object (as it is not relly mine) how can I
* cease being associated with it ?

You could consider contacting the relevant contacts related to the objects
in question.  They may have their own maintainer they want to place on the 
objects, in which case you could send an update with the new maintainer as the 
mnt-by: attribute.

If need be the following URL provides information on the creation of a new 
maintainer:

Please contact me if you require further assistance.


Kind regards,

* Is it good and recommended practice therefore for me to just delete the

* cc'ed to lir-wg in case anyone has a better idea...
