[members-discuss] New Charging Scheme

Have I missed something quite fundimental, but why can't we just keep the current charging model, it seems to work reasonably well and change for change's sake is never a good idea. Also with the level of automation that currently exists, and the good working knowledge that most people have of the systems, we could probably considerably reduced the RIPE's staffing levels and save a great deal of money. In times of belt tightening, even "Not for Profit" organisations like the RIPE must make the same cut backs as those that exist to make a profit.

Best regards,

Simon
