Dear all, There are known differences between the RIR implementations of RDAP. In some cases we will need to make extended RDAP specifications, e.g. a resource can have multiple countries in the RIPE region. The RIRs are working together to make an inventory of these differences, and based on that we will plan future work. Kind regards Tim Bruijnzeels Assistant Manager Software Engineering RIPE NCC

On the github repo[0] they have a small snippet about it.
"An org: reference from an inetnum,inet6num,autnum resource is not included in the query response. By contrast, ARIN returns the org reference as a "registrant" entity."
As I understand it. RIPE NCC has done an active choice in NOT doing the RDAP implementation similar to ARIN.

I've been attempting to use RDAP to verify our customer's IP information, however I'm running into some difficulties due to differences between ARIN's implementation and RIPE's.
For example, I'm trying to get the organization name for a particular IP. On ARIN, this is easy. I look through the provided vcards for one where the kind is 'org', and that gives me the information about the organization. (ex: https://rdap.arin.net/registry/ip/66.55.158.27 )
With RIPE's RDAP implementation, this data does not seem to be readily available.
For example, if I look at https://rdap.db.ripe.net/ip/195.66.225.160 I'd expect to find the string 'London Internet Exchange Ltd.' somewhere within the response.
If I look at the web UI: https://apps.db.ripe.net/db-web-ui/#/query?searchtext=195.66.225.160#results... , this information is easily available.
Would it be possible to expand the RDAP results to include organization information? This seems like it would just be another vcard entry, so there really shouldn't be any backwards compatibility issues.
Apologies if this isn't the correct list, I can't really find any information about RDAP on RIPE's website.
