Hi Carsten, I made a mistake in judgement with regards to what the email was about, so I think this topic is sort of redundant at this point. And to not end up spamming people too much, I think we should at least restrict it to aa-wg only if it should be discussed further (which I don't personally think it should). I got an email mentioning how this is maybe not too much in scope for RIPE list.
