This is good, but it should also happen for ASN's that are already
active. An check for active use of the ASN and conforming to the current
rules every 6 months should be a nice thing. This way old unused ASN's
can be recycled easilier.
Probably RIPE will implement such a thing when there routing registry
consistency check software is complete.
