Re: [lir-wg] New question

Hello, Quote from (lost in the requote): } > This covers support for RIPE meetings. } > RIPE meetings are not fully self financing, } > f.i. staff support is not "charged to" RIPE. Quote from "Neil J. McRae": } I suggest that this is one of the things that } changes. These meetings should be self financing. I'm not yet sure that this would be a good idea. If flying to RIPE meetings is already a bit too expensive for many of the smaller LIRs, I don't think we'll see much of them anymore if there is going to be an entrance fee as well. Furthermore, if the AGM will be a part of one RIPE meeting per year, wouldn't this create a plutocracy, i.e. rule by those that can afford to pay a bit more? -- Aleksi Suhonen
