Hi,
Thanks for this link.
Also I've noticed that in ARIN, /20 up to and including /18 plus /32 up to and including /28 are referred as SMALL, with a fee of $2000, not $4000+ as proposed in model A.
What makes the pay per category model "A" as proposed impossible for me to vote for is it penalizes all long standing lirs. When I started working with Ripe you signed up completed the forms and a /19 was allocated, more if you could demonstrate need but /19 was default. You then requested an AS. Run out came along and you could get a last /22 together with your v6 allocation. So that adds up to a /19, /22, AS and /32(or /29) That should be the bare minimum for small as it is what any long standing lir has with Ripe, yet they would now find themselves in category 6 at the high end of the scale. It does not mean they have more revenues than a lir started in say 2018 with much less IP resources, just that they started first. Note that I am not talking about the company I work for, we have more resources than those stated above, but I know several companies that fit into the category. Brian
