Not quite. The organization formerly known as "debis" is now called
"T-Systems".

"Daimler Benz AG" would have been more appropriate. Mercedes Benz was
just the car manufacturer--but I'm not sure if the split was there in
1992.
Until about a year ago, T-Systems actually used parts of the netblock
for some hosted servers (Deutsche Post, for instance). But in the
meantime, they've got non-legacy address space and are no longer in
the "extra-small" category as far as their RIPE membership is
concerned.
