ORLY.

It always takes a while to get these invoices paid (corporation
with limited supplier list requiring an exception order that
as there's only one invoice per year is starting again from
fresh each time, and it's international payment to confuse
matters).

This is a crazy plan, unless you need the re-instate income.

I, like many others I suspect, don't have time to pay attention
to the details of RIPE operation and trust them and the members
approving on my behalf to do the right thing. As with the PI
end user contracts it seems that is an unsafe trust.

I always saw RIPE as the sane version of ARIN, please no extra
crazy.
