[members-discuss] RIPE invoice 2010-I

> Have you marked your AS number such way?

Yes, I did, RIPE in the meanwhile has sent us another couple of emails 
persisting in their claim that AS numbers, also the ones used by the LIRs

they'd find they now have to pay extra for their -own- as...

way to go ripe.
