(before we registered our first PI block I even called and asked them if PROVIDER INDEPENDANT space would not cause recurring fees for us, and they said no. (besides the showing up in the billing score for a short time, which ofcourse is calculated into our one-time administration fee.)
The RIPE example contract(1) for the 2007-01 policy indicated there should be a periodic maintenance fee under section 4.2. At the last RIPE meeting there were questions asked about the amount that a LIR should ask for this fee, but no concrete answers were given.
The new (draft) charging scheme indicates an amount of 50eur/year, but all our new 2007-01 PI space with contracts have a lower maintenance fee amount. It would have been a lot less complicated if this was discussed and all clear before the new PI policy 2007-01 was accepted.

The examples at the GM given were 50 EUR/year, 100 EUR/year and something else. I think that gave enough indication, of where they were proposing to go. Kind regards, Martin List-Petersen -- Airwire - Ag Nascadh Pobail an Iarthair http://www.airwire.ie Phone: 091-865 968
