Non-profits, charitable organisations, and individuals with PI space exist. Secondly, it would require the NCC to *know* how much money a member makes and this information is something a non-public company would not be keen to divulge. Thirdly, I'm sure there are many large telcos who, while using large amounts of resources, are actually making a loss on paper. Will they get a free ride? >1) can we delegate somebody to go and vote?

A member can nominate a proxy to vote on their behalf or vote electronically (that has in the past not always been possible for all votes) as laid out in http://www.ripe.net/ripe/docs/ripe-514 I note that http://www.ripe.net/lir-services/ncc/gm does not have any information regarding these possibilities, maybe the NCC could remedy this? rgds, Sascha Luck
