Re: NIC Handles

A still open question is what to do with people residing in Europe having a InterNIC handle already. You surely want these people to have a RIPE handle as well, I presume. This, however, would mean that such a person has two handles, which is confusing.

People should have just one handle; not two. I think that the question that we are trying to solve is: If someone does not have a handle of any sort and we (some registry - like RIPE or the NIC) want to assign him one, how do we assign him one such that the handle is unique? --asp@uunet.uu.net (Andrew Partan)
