Why is the maintainer object used?
The maintainer is used to protect your other objects in AFRINIC database.
It ensures that only authorised changes can be done to your objects. The AFRINIC Database provides mechanisms to control who can make changes in the database and what changes they can make. The distinction of "who" vs. "what" separates authentication from authorisation.
The maintainer object serves as a container to hold authentication filters.
