Indeed. The idea behind the proposed change is (sort of) "those who can be bothered to understand the system and become a LIR are allowed".
I cannot see any requirement of "understanding the system", just "become a LIR", which boils down to "shell out enough money to RIPE NCC". Do you follow the illusion that LIRs are more clued on average than non-LIRs? Basically the proposal wants to change: "People who pay enough money to RIPE NCC and are ISPs (or lie convincingly enough) and claim a certain customer count projection" to "People who pay enough money to RIPE NCC and are ISPs (or lie convincingly enough)" Regards, Daniel -- CLUE-RIPE -- Jabber: dr@cluenet.de -- dr@IRCnet -- PGP: 0xA85C8AA0
