I was there, and the change of the charging scheme was discussed for
*three* consecutive meetings, and it was voted for, and received the
majority of votes.

The change to per-piece billing for PI and AS is came with the adoption
of 2007-01 and had nothing to do whatsoever with increasing the budget 
(which it didn't, the LIR categories and fees were adjusted to make
this neutral in regards to the overall budget).

Of course there are people that do not like any change that will directly
affect their business model (getting lots of PI for free and selling for 
money) - and this is why the change was announced well in advance, and
voted for(!).
