> One of the ideas we talked about was to go to a structure like
> 
>   NIC-XY999	(derived from the current NIC-Handles by prepending NIC-)
>   RIPE-XY999	(newly assigned within the RIPE community)

So you end up with data like :

person: Duncan Rogerson
.
.
handle: NIC-DR222
handle: RIPE-DR001

(assuming multiple handle: fields are permitted, to cope with people
who for one reason or another have both types of handle).

or

person: A Person
.
.
handle: RIPE-AP001

.. in the database ?  Or should the name of the field distinguish
between RIPE and NIC handles - ie the person object can have two
fields, nic-hdl: and ripe-hdl: to cope with people who end up with
a handle of each type.
