[members-discuss] Request to amend the RIPE NCC Articles of Association

Hi Sascha:

I think your point is valued... But for real... The ripe community as I know for past 7 years... Such situation is very unlikely to happen, and on the other hand, if someone have agreed to be bought, I do not understand much of his intention to change his vote during the actual voting with or without being verified. And secondly, vote can be bought, and each cost 1600 euro/ year:) according to current amount of voting, you only need about 200 vote to secure almost anything, so 320,000 euro/year.

Just my two second:)
