[lir-wg] RIPE costs and staffing again

Peter,
I share your sentiments on the size of the organisation,
and the specific level of non-core activities that should 
not be funded by RIPE NCC membership fees, the RIPE meeting is 
one area that should be fully funded by those attending. The 
RIPE meeting should also have no impact to daily operations.

I certainly feel that a higher level of productivity should 
have been deployed irrespective of the volume.

Regards,
Neil.
