do we want to change the scope of the NWI?

E.g. if there is a route(6): object in Afrinic which conflicts with an 
existing entry in the ripedb, should the RIPE version be deleted?  Could 
this also apply to APNIC objects?

If the network block is split into multiple blocks by the allocating 
RIR, should the route(6): object be deleted?  What if it's deallocated 
or transferred to a new party.

The idea here is to create a process which will, over time, eliminate 
fossils.
