[...]" https://www.ripe.net/publications/docs/ripe-639#1-2-scope The RIPE Policy "Abuse Contact Management in the RIPE Database" does not fulfil this requirement. It would require a successful policy proposal to change that. In 2016 such proposal was made, but the proposer decided to withdraw the proposal due to the inability to find an acceptable agreement which satisfied all parties. https://www.ripe.net/participate/policies/proposals/2016-01 I hope this clarifies.
