Personnally, I would be interested to know first-hand experiences on
how ARIN, LACNIC, Afrinic or APNIC handle cracker activity reports
(you know, these reports sent more or less at random towards every
email addresse that the alleged victim can find). Do they send a
special police squad immediately? Do they sue the cracker in the name
of the victim? Do they deliver a free and comprehensive
technical analysis of the attack? 

I could continue the list but, since you blocked RIPE addresses, you
will probably miss my message :-)
