Since 2003-11-01 05:10:39 as far as I can see with GRH ;)
I've marked it as returned in GRH so you won't see a red color there
anymore.

When you are not using certain prefixes anymore you should remove those
indeed. But as there is a *lot* of "historical" information in that
registry it isn't really that bad if it remains.

We always have things like these in there for instance:

inet6num:     3FFE::/24
netname:      ONLINE
descr:        IPv6 Network of online.org.ua
country:      UA
admin-c:      EAG-6BONE
tech-c:       EAG-6BONE
notify:       admin at online.org.ua
mnt-by:       ONLINE-MNT
changed:      admin at online.org.ua 20030628
source:       6BONE

I am quite sure they never got a /24 ;)

But 6bone will stop to exist 6/6/6 fortunately thus it is not a huge
problem, as long as it does not cause any operational problems of
course.

Contact David Kessens (david at iprg.nokia.com), he can fix that for you.
Though I guess he will also read this message.
