the at least is important, you have choice : contract or no contract.
fees or not fees.

2007-1 limit choice : contract with LIR that has contract with RIPE or
contract with Ripe is it the same.

yes.
the 2007-1 concern internet ressource like AS and PI (not PA).

this 2007-1 affect PI. and in a way the 2008-1 (because a lot of inetnum
holder do not have contract).


well for whole Internet. i do not beleive that the same rule for
EVERYBODY MUST FOLLOW is the good/bad choice.

what we believe is: to let a little window of freedom/choice.

today ipv4-PI holder has this freedom.

the compromise is:
must have contract relationship become may have contract relationship.

bst regards.
