[db-wg] Getting 'responsible organization' out of RDAP

Dear Brian,

Getting the ORG object itself looks like to NOT be possible with the
current RIPE NCC implementation. Roles can be fetches with RDAP.
Fx https://rdap.db.ripe.net/entity/AR17761-RIPE

Using the github repo as reference[0] I think you will need to look for
other ways instead of RDAP for fetching org info from the RIPE NCC database.

If you can do with ONLY fetching roles. It is possible with RDAP.
