It's beginning to look like rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic. Spot the odd one out (if I've gathered the data correctly) AFRINIC. $6m LACNIC. $10m APNIC. $22.5m ARIN. $24m RIPE NCC. €42 = $46m
now list the services provided to operators by each. you wanna get rid of ris, atlas, many dns services, new engineer education, ...? to compare you will have to fold caida's budget into arin's. oh, and route views's too. this discussion sometimes reminds me of the US house of representatives debt ceiling discussion. let's cut everything that does not benefit my state, or fossil fuels. i am a ripe member because of the real services, open community, etc. ya gets what ya pay for. tanstaafl. randy
