Hi Antonis,
(speaking as a member of the WG, not Co-Chair)
Yes, I think it would be appropriate for the NCC to delete those objects
from the RIPE database when they are returned to the NCC.
Hi Peter, Antonis,
This discussion comes up from time to time - the last time was in August
2024:
https://mailman.ripe.net/archives/list/[email protected]/thread/W2ZU43PFH4LOMKQL4V4OBLWPAGBICJK7/
I agree that there's an issue here that needs to be resolved. We
recently had a issue with fraudulent reference of INEX resources, and
opened up a ticket with the NCC due to inaction from the organisation
that executed the registration. The issue has now been resolved, but the
NCC staff member (hi!) handling the ticket pointed out that their hands
are tied, and provided a link to this email from the board a couple of
years back:
https://www.ripe.net/ripe/mail/archives/db-wg/2018-August/005989.html
In other words, a change of policy is needed to allow the RIPE NCC to do
this. I.e. this is an issue for the community to resolve.
Nick
