We have 1,106 domain objects that do not have a mnt-by attribute.

Yes, we have 4 person objects without any mnt-by attribute that have
access to MyAfrinic. 3 of them are related to existing and active
organisations with various roles (general, admin, tech, billing and abuse).

A small note: when we released the WHOIS 2.3 in September 2017 (and not
beginning of 2017, which was wrong), we used a script that created a
maintainer for all the existing person and role objects that had no mnt-by.

This means that following that migration procedure, all the person and
role objects in our WHOIS database had a maintainer.

Today, we have a total of 9 person objects in the WHOIS database without
a mnt-by attribute. After a quick look at the logs, I can confirm that
all these objects had a mnt-by attribute at some point in the past
(either a "normal" maintainer or an automatically generated one). These
objects are not protected because their owners removed the mnt-by on
purpose.

Regards,
Michel
