Dear Hank, I can think of a couple of reasons for requesting this but bear in mind: -We are talking about the deletion of around 2.8 million objects -The only potential link between a person and a country is the address field, which does not necessarily contain a country - Exposing such a list would make a spammers dream. We have tried to protect personal information in the RIPE Database by preventing buld download of personal information and controlling the rate of queries. If we now expose a list of all this information we will doing precisely what we want to avoid Could you put forward some arguments for having this data exposed so we can all weight pros and cons?

Can a list of "to be deleted" objects per country be posted or if not, how about after the fact, as to which objects have been deleted per country?

Thanks, Hank
