I'm a heavy mail form user, and I have been bitten by inconsistencies
in the robot in the past (requiring bits that are not in the form, or
refusing bits that *are* in the form, or lagging behind updated forms,
or just refusing to understand me)...

The amount of interaction I have with the NCC these days is pretty
much "two requests for every new LIR that is set up" (initial-v6, 
initial-v4), and every now and then, a spurious AS number or IPv6 PI,
maybe 5 formal requests in total per year.

Given all that I would be fine with going through the LIR portal for
these few requests.  Even if I still prefer mail to web interfaces :-)

have you enabled IPv6 on something today...?
