It is very simple. Payment fee for next year = BUDGET / Count of LIRs.
Which, I think, is the intention of the proposed charging scheme. "Self-assessment" and outlier categories notwithstanding. It probably is the simplest system and it is also IPv6 compatible as there should not be a huge difference in allocations per member. As Jorgen said earlier in the thread, what the community ought to do is to engage with the NCC to determine which activities are actually required and how much the community is prepared to pay for them. This is, in the medium term, the only mechanism by which the cost of RIR resources can be controlled. One thing I dislike about the CS proposal is the retention of the "sign-up fee". This effectibly doubles the cost of NCC membership for a new entrant in the first year and works as a barrier to membership. If it *really* costs the NCC EUR 2000 to sign up a new member, something is seriously wrong and the efficiency of that process must be scrutinized. rgds, Sascha Luck
