As Peter and Gert wrote: It seems unclear why We (ripe) should support ietf with a one shot payment. Anyway I also would like to understand why IETF (today a big stone) don't ask its members/vendors for support. I could agree to use RIPE founds to support any organization that could not be able to have enough founds for specific reasons, but honestly, even if I know the IETF importance, I don't see any actions it tkake or took to support us (lir and ripe). Use a so big admount of founds seems not clear. My opinion is to refuse the ietf request or to give a scheduled and well documented annual support to be used for specific activity in benefith for both. I appreciate any clarifications Sergio Ioppolo Il 26/Mag/2016 09:24, "Gert Doering" <gert@space.net> ha scritto:

As requested by Nigel Titley at the NCC Services working group session, I would like to express my support for the RIPE NCC to participate in the long-term funding to the IETF.
I think it is easy to agree with the general principle, however I was not impressed by today's presentation because it did not provide relevant information in addition (nor in response) to the discussion at the previous GM.
What Peter says.
Supporting the IETF is good, with a yearly contribution to ISOC or IETF directly.
Transferring our reserves to their reserves, I fail to see the compelling reason why this would be in our (RIPE) interest.
