It's realy not easy. I was wondered when we received status of LIR. RIPE great company with good service. Free Meetings, Lerning. It was very helpful for us. I very thanks RIPE and all members for that. But anyway we ready to pay for course when we need. May be you can suggest how can we cut costs without any changing? -- Alexey S Ivanov General Director LeaderTelecom Ltd <div class="WordSection1"> <o:p></o:p></div> </body></html>
