I was actually suggesting that instead of saying that technology #1 is mandatory and technology #2 is optional we just say that one of the supported technologies must be listed. Then we can add and remove technologies as needed without having to make decisions about what people *must* use.
I like that suggestion.
But if we must define a single technology that is mandatory then e-mail is a better choice than phone.
I actually disagree with that - speaking from my use case as a user of the RIPE DB. If I bother going there, it's urgent, and I want something to happen *now* (otherwise, I'm not going to bother). E-Mail might arrive with any delay, or never, and feedback might come, or not. So, no, *for the purpose of contact data in the RIPE DB*, I do not think that "e-mail is better than phone". (Of course I personally hate it if people call me. But people who do so pretty quickly learn the difference between "it is urgent *now*, so phone is perfectly fine" and "an e-mail would have been sufficient") Gert Doering -- NetMaster -- have you enabled IPv6 on something today...?
