You can ask your government for anything as long as it isn't classified information. And you're not gonna ask your government about count of servers they operate, how many packs of paper and pens they buy, count of cars they're using etc... and you probably won't even get such answer. There's no reason to ask for such details on NCC. Yes, that's micro-management. And of course, answering such questions in meaningless details also costs some money, time needed for answer isn't cheap (for free). Wouldn't it be more useful to devote NCC employee's time to something that creates some real value? Of course, if some data is stored for a long time (like RIPE RIS service), some space is required. That costs money. Every sane person can figure it out. And members have the opportunity to influence similar things through long-term strategies. Or you vote for a strategy and don't think about what it might cost? I don't think that the expenses details of NCC are at insufficient level. As was mentioned already, ammount of informations NCC publish is at level, where most people haven't time to read such informations. And I think few people shouting here aren't reading them anyway. It's a lie that NCC doesn't communicate about budget and spending. - Daniel On 5/28/24 12:38 PM, George Porter wrote:
Sorry , this is incorrect, asking questions is not micromanaging anything, its just asking for information. In the UK we can ask our members of parliament any question we want on government spending and what is spent where this is not micro managing the country . Its not about micro management, its just about asking for information. So just shut up and let RIPE answer the question, and further RIPE haven't done a good job, otherwise we wouldn't be so much communications about budget and spending.
