I've asked the exec-board @RIPE during the AGM in Rotterdam to review the status of the Broker page as it has serviced its purpose and currently end-customer are confused by the page as it is presented as a certified Broker status with the RIPE NCC. The RIPE NCC isn't responsible for the actions of any of the companies listed on the RIPE website, but as it is currently confusing for end-customers, it is best to take it down in my opinion. I hope that the Exec Board will take swift action on that.

So I would like to collect more data, whether someone else has reported their spam to NCC. And finally to ask a question why nothing is happened to their broker status. Hi, We've seen a number of spam mails from Supplicity in the last two days, all targeted at email addresses only used in the RIPE DB, so it's clear where they get their addresses from. To make it worse, they're actually using RIPE as sales argument in their spam: "SUPPLITY recently registered as an official broker for RIPE, because we were based in the area that the IPv4 transferring business is growing, and Your organization abroad has commercial potential in its unused IPv4 addresses." I have no idea what this 'offical broker' status means, but spamming RIPE members should be a good reason to revoke it.
