It is still referenced:

As this is an allocation object you will need to contact hostmaster@localhost 
and ask them to change the mnt-lower: and mnt-routes: to your new maintainer 
and then you will be able to delete your old maintainer.

I guess, you will have to do this in two steps, first change the
mnt of the old object, then delete it.

... sorry that i have created two mnt objects. i had intended that i can update the old mnt object.

can you change please all objects with "sczn-db-mnt" links to SCZN-MNT.

after this, can you delete please the old mnt object sczn-db-mnt from the ripe-db.

many thanks and sorry for my mistake.


kind regards,
