Just an update: Laurens Hoogendoorn from the NCC contacted me and did
indeed confirm that ASNs without LEGACY status with an ORG that is OTHER
are indeed unsponsored, and that you can look at stat.ripe.net
historical whois to find out for how long.
I do still think that it should be more obvious than this.
Kind regards,

So I have now run across several ASNs in which the org is of type
"OTHER" yet there is no sponsoring-org, could this please be clarified?
Example ASNs: AS200358, AS204842
If it is like I think it is, it must be that they have lost their
sponsors but if that is the case, I would like to see a remark that is
an "RIPE NCC managed value" saying something like "This ASN does not
have any sponsor since YYYY-MM-DD".
I am not entirely sure on this but something to clarify what is going on.
Kind regards,
