Re: [members-discuss] [ncc-announce] [news] The Future of the RIPE Database Proxy Service

Hi Nick,

I can't see a compelling reason to make it into a member-only service, and the existing organisations who use the service seem to gain some value from it, so discontinuing it probably isn't in the best interest of the RIPE NCC's core purpose of being a RIR. As there are only 4 users of the service, there seems little point in charging. I'd be happy to see this turned into a free but contract-based service.

I fully agree. Sander
