[address-policy-wg] 2007-01 New Policy Proposal (Direct Internet Resource Assignments to End Users from the RIPE NCC)

Hi All,

I object this proposal.

You know, in ex-USSR and especially Asian countries there is a VERY
difficult (for small companies and NGOs that are main PI holders -
sometime impossible at all) to have contracts and payments outside country.

Instead of that, I propose just to change the billing scheme of LIRs and
score PI and ASN by a very small rate (i.e. 1 scoring unit) next years
after registration.

This will have LIRs to maintain agreements with end-users and have
end-users to return unused PI/ASN to RIPE. In this case, all contracts
and money transfers will be domestic for PI/ASN holders.
