Short content description
-------------------------

        This  memorandum describes the activities to be per-
        formed by the RIPE NCC and the  associated  expendi-
        ture  during  the year 1999.  The companion document
        "RIPE NCC Charging Scheme 1999" (ripe-187) describes
        how the necessary revenue is generated.

        There  are  formally well defined stages in the cre-
        ation of this document: It is drafted  by  the  RIPE
        NCC  based  on  input from RIPE and the users of NCC
        services.  Subsequently it is proposed to  the  mem-
        bership by the executive board of the RIPE NCC.  The
        membership discusses it and approves the final  ver-
        sion.

        This  version  of  the document has been produced by
        the RIPE NCC menagement.  It  is  presented  by  the
        executive  board  for  approval by the membership at
        the Annual General Meeting  on  October  15th  1998.
        Comments  from the RIPE community to the authors and
        the board are encouraged.
