7. RIPE NCC Charging Scheme 2010

The RIPE NCC Executive Board acknowledges that there are different opinions on the implications of charging for Independent Internet Number Resources. Therefore in the event that the first proposed Charging Scheme (Version A) is not adopted, the RIPE NCC Executive Board provides for an alternative Charging Scheme (Version B) based on the current Charging Scheme 2009. This Charging Scheme (Version B) increases the Service fees such that the total revenue equates the total revenue of the proposed Charging Scheme (Version A).

• Presentation of the RIPE NCC Charging Scheme 2010 (Version A and B)
• The formal resolution:

"The General Meeting adopts the RIPE NCC Charging Scheme 2010 - Version A."
