All humour aside:<br>
<br>
Abolish RIPE meetings. They do not serve any purpose (anymore)<br>
that cannot be served online more easily and less expensively. <br>
The NCC has budgeted a cool EUR 2.18 million for meetings in<br>
2020[1] That is a rough EUR100 per member now and likely to be<br>
significantly more in the future. <br>
They are also, as we have been told again and again, horrible<br>
events, attended by monsters, where nobody in their right mind<br>
wants to go. I really don't know why any member should want to<br>
pay for *that*<br>
So abolish them. That should also obviate the need for a Code Of<br>
Conduct and its enforcers.<br>
