Fair point. I dropped out of law school in my third year. I liked engineering 
more. Strongly considering to go back and add "J.D." to my list of credentials 
tho. Also, my MBA program consisted of 30% law and regulations related courses.

However, I'm sure Anne-of-many-titles and any other person that actually did 
graduate will agree with my analysis. The concept of personal jurisdiction in 
the U.S. (and its associated challenges) is something that was discussed during 
the first year.

That said, you are totally right in ignoring all of my legal bla-bla. In the 
end, only a real court case will decide the matter. IANALYET.

Hi Petrit, all,

Thanks a lot for the clarification. I only discovered that once I was working 
on the slide for tomorrow, as during the previous days discussion I always used 
my original word proposal document.

I had the feeling that some of the points that we discussed in the last days 
were misunderstood because there was a "reinforcement or duplication" of the 
policy text, while it was meant as a clarification.

I will make sure to clarify it tomorrow during the WG presentation.

Hi Alessandro,

I just read Marco response to this thread (Marco thanks for the quick reaction 
on it!), and also Angel response (so to avoid answering to several emails about 
the same).

I guess all your other inputs are also relevant for the NCC.

In principle, I don't think all that should be part of the policy proposal, but 
if the NCC seems otherwise, I'm happy to work with you/Angel/others to make 
sure that we have captured correctly that and see what the WG believes.

Thanks!

If at all possible, I'd suggest to register a suitable RDAP JSON value for 
the
relevant remark type, at IANA[*].  That would allow automated tools to 
discard
the corresponding vcard entry.

ARIN write a remark, like so:

 "remarks" : [
{
   "description" : [
  "ARIN has attempted to validate the data for this POC, but has
received no response from the POC since 2011-06-07"
   ],
   "title" : "Unvalidated POC"
}
 ],


Such remark is not quite actionable, as it doesn't say which POC does not 
work
(recall there are various arrays of vcards, only some of which are tagged 
with
the "abuse" role.)  Perhaps more importantly, it doesn't say if the invalid
nature of the mailbox was notified to the responsible organization, and such
notification acknowledged.

The latter datum is much more difficult to get right.  I'd stick with an
invalid mark.  If, say, email messages bounced since 2011, and the 
organization
was promptly notified and shrugged, a loud and clear mark is well deserved.

The format, like the actual handling of reports, is one or more levels 
above.

As for a DNSBL, I keep reading that most data in the RIPE Database is 
public.
Are there API to browse its content?  Is it possible to maintain a 
(filtered)
copy of it?  If one could collect all the blocks whose abuse-c is marked as
invalid, she could then run a corresponding DNSBL.  However, article 3 of 
the
Terms and Conditions for Data Access[†] seems to disallow just that.

You are welcome, Edward, Marco.
I only noticed that such note was missing from rdap when I was going to
show here that it an example of  contact marked as invalid by RIPE
process.

Long-term, Alessandro proposal of having a field for tagging the
contact status as (probably) not-working seems the way to go (not sure
who should propose that to IANA), but storing it in a comment would
allow for a quick solution in the interim.

Hello Jordi,

Allow me to respond as this is a more an operational topic.

I agree with you that RIPE policies should provide the general 
framework, while the RIPE NCC works out the best operational details to 
apply the policies.


In the mentioned example the procedure has worked, as the contact was 
identified and marked as invalid.
Ed has clarified already that after the RIPE 80 meeting, we will work on 
adding this information also to the RIPE RDAP service.

 5.135.48.50is one of such IP addresses.
 It has as abuse-c ab...@for-ns.com, which is trivially invalid: for-

You are correct: the RIPE RDAP service returns the abuse-c contact as an entity 
under an IP object, but not the "validation failed" comment.

We will add this comment as a "remarks" data structure within the IP object: 
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7483#section-4.3

We plan to work on the RDAP functionality after the RIPE 80 meeting, we will 
include this change.
