Following the discussion, I see three voices of support and one voice
of doubt (plus other voices that go into technicalities without expressing
a clear voice in either direction).  

I'm not sure whether I see this as "well supported".

Just because you have a different opinion from Jim doesn't mean his 
points are invalid or he is doing a bad job as board member.

Personally, I can see both sides of the debate, and my suggestion would
be "have those that use DNSMON pay a fair price for it" ("those" would
be "owners/operators of DNS servers that are monitored").

I do think that the RIPE NCC is uniquely qualified to run the job - due
to its proven neutrality and competence - but indeed, there is a certain 
danger of distorting the market, so this should not be "for free".
