Hey,
once again, this completely leaves ipv6 out of consideration, where is
Taking IPv6 into consideration doesn't change the overall equation a lot, IMHO. Let's not forget that we're talking about the billing scheme for one year only. All the cards are dealt anew in mid-2012, when the 2013 charging scheme is discussed. I presume more weight will be added to IPv6 allocations as soon as they become more relevant. I completely agree with the notion that IPv4 (and therefore, billing per IPv4 network in RIPE) will become irrelevant eventually, but we're not there yet [tm]. And although it seems to be en vogue for a couple of people to imply that everyone and their social network will switch to native IPv6 as soon as the last /8 is distributed, I believe this is a naive assumption.
