RIGHT RIGHT RIGHT !!!!
Are we just dreaming of an RR utopia - I hope so. Marten articulates the point
very well. Sometimes we need to force the use of the registry for what 
we want the registry to do.

  * things that need a decision. I just think that arguing that people
  * will not update the information is the wrong reason to have something
  * mandatory or optional.

Agreed.

  *  * See you all in Lisbon.

Yep - we haven't got one yet (dont forget to send template to
meeting at ripe.net).
