[members-discuss] [ncc-announce] [GM] Executive Board Meeting to Discuss Charging Scheme Input from Members

Hi Jan,

this is not a result of the activity plan. That is a reaction of the members, because the EB offered three, but actually similar proposals with a 20% increase and they didnt consider the voices in the last years. the members made a reaction by votiong for a proposal like this.

a LIR with more than 3% of the allocation organised by RIPE NCC pays same as a LIR who owns lower than %0,001 of the total resource of the RIPE NCC. 

So many of the voter voted for this because they find this and the desicion to propose sort of ilusion unfair.

I followed also this discussion, and this discussion was about the charging scheme, and yes, there were the signs of the reaction of the members..

To ensure the budget on shoulders of the smal LIRs without offering any other charging options, is not fair!

This wont bring a “stable future”.
