Dear Ziv,

You are correct. End Users of "orphaned" Internet number resources will
have the choice to either sign a contract with a sponsoring LIR or with
the RIPE NCC.

However, "Contractual Requirements for Provider Independent Resource
Holders in the RIPE NCC Service Region" states: "The preferred model of
the RIPE community is for End Users to have a
contractual relationship with a sponsoring LIR instead of directly with
the RIPE NCC."

End Users signing a contract with the RIPE NCC will be charged a
one-time Administration fee and an annual Maintenance fee as according to:
http://www.ripe.net/membership/billing/procedure-enduser.html

With regards to AS numbers and other Internet number resources assigned
to organisations in the AfriNIC service region, those have been
transferred or are in the process of being transferred to AfriNIC. They
do not fall under the policy implementation "Direct Internet Resource
Assignments to End Users from the RIPE NCC".

For more information, please see:
http://ripe.net/projects/erx/transferred.html


I hope this clarifies. If you have any further questions, please don't
hesitate to contact me.

Kind regards,

Andrea Cima
RIPE NCC
