Hello all, For what it's worth, and to be clear: I voted against the proposed category-based model last year. But not against its principle. I strongly support the idea of a category-based model, but I also strongly support the idea of "if you are a big player, you should support the NCC's expense more than smaller structures". But I did vote against because of its limitation on bigger categories. It's a equality vs equity topic. And, yes, the most easy way to do it can be related to resources holding. Big LIRs won't cancel their membership. And if RIPE community (and/or NCC) is afraid that the resources would be transfered to another RIR for economic reasons, then, we still could limit RIR-to-RIR resources transfer. Regards, Clément Cavadore
