[members-discuss] New Charging Scheme

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

hi Marcel,

I have a "bad feeling" about the new charing scheme.

1) as Daniel already wrote and you also mentioned: it looks like nearly
ever LIR will have to pay more for the same resources.
2) if I understood correctly

"All contracts for any RIPE NCC products or services will be between the
RIPE NCC and a member. This means that Direct Assignment Users and other
separate service contract holders, such as DNSMON subscribers, must be a
RIPE NCC member"

the current "sponsoring" of pi-space by a LIR is not possible any more.
So we lose min. 10 customers having this service.

3) if 2) is right, the RIPE will have to get more stuff for all the
small /24 pi-space members

For me it's just "making money"; but the RIPE has enough, so why?!

It's nice that they say it's making everything easier, but I guess it's
making everything more complex and for all the LIR... will the RIPE pay
for the customers I lost when they become members?

The RIPE should fix open topics like asused for ipv6 first and try to
save money before they start asking for more.

Br,
Patrick
