[members-discuss] [LIR] Re: Fwd: Re: RIPE DB T&C violation by brokers

My stance on this is below.

Why should a private company be allowed to make profit on public IP Space.

Even the UK Government sells its IP Space to private companies for Profit (Public selling Public IP Space to private companies is a JOKE

Remember, IP Space is not owned by the LIR but allocated by Ripe. So how and why is it allowed by a LIR to sell something that is not owned by them?

If a LIR no longer needs IP Space then return it to RIPE. 

This is why IPV4 ran out due to RIPEs poor management policy.

IF I could vote no confidence in the ripe board for allowing such business to take place, I would vote now.

I'll go rent a car park space shall I, be allocated a space and then go sell it for 500x the rent price. 

Members need to step up here and instead of saying this has been discussed before, get on and make this change or the same will happen with IPv6 in years to come.

Hi,

I don't understand RIPE NCC's actions as "support", instead i see it as simple "acknowledgement".

And in case you haven't noticed, "They" are also RIPE NCC members, some even several times... :-)

Cheers,
Carlos
