The process of deletion itself is clear. I'm just wondering about the consequences of your statement.
Further to this deletion, and in order to avoid replication of the current situation after this deletion process, incoming messages containing person and role objects originating from domain name related activities will NOT be processed.
The RIPE NCC will contact any source of such messages in order to clear any possible misunderstandings.
Are you going to check if the data of a new requested handle were used before as a domainonly referenced handle ? Would you block that and we couldn't request a new handle with this specific data for an inetnum object ?
No we will NOT block the creation of such handles. It doesn't matter whether the handle existed or not before as long as now it is used for IP related issues. What we will do is track the creation of significant amounts of unreferenced contact data. Ideally we would like to implement a regular clean up so that the situation does not build up to what we have now again. regards, Joao Damas RIPE NCC
