Hi Jacob Yes you are right. The RIPE NCC can correct me if I am not entirely correct here :) I believe, if an ORGANISATION object is referenced by a resource object (even if it is "org-type: OTHER") then some attributes in the ORGANISATION object will be locked. These, including the "org-name:"

HI Nick The ORGANISATION object has an "org-type:"  attribute. Most ORGANISATION objects have a value of either 'LIR' or 'OTHER'. If it is 'LIR' that ORGANISATION object was created by the RIPE NCC for a resource holder and has been through the due diligence process. If it is type 'OTHER' it wa
