[members-discuss] Complaints against LIRs ignored by NCC

Hi All,

I think that post hits the nail on the head perfectly.

I guess if so many of us feel this way we should investigate the Ripe
framework to see if there is something that can be done to create positive
change.

This would be a great short/medium term solution however we all must look
to support ipv6 natively.

Merry Christmas,
Oliver
