The understanding from the GM was quite clear, that all PI ressources would be billed, be it your own infrastructure or not. There is no difference to PI, be it your infrastructure or a customers. There's only a difference between PA and PI. Only PA is in the point based billing system.
PI ressources from before weren't billed at all, be they your infrastructure or not.
That was pretty clear to anybody, I think.
Maybe that was pretty clear to anybody who went to the GM, but how many LIRs manage to make it to the GM? IMO the whole implementation of 2007-1 has been unclear for anybody not party to the GM. I thought the point of 2007-1 was to make end users account for their usage financially. LIR infrastructure is not end user. For a small LIR 2007-1 has ultimately cost us money and caused us headache with our end users, which is something that seems to have not been thought about in terms of how people would have to implement it. I see the point of 2007-1, if address space is running out then people are not going to pay for space that they don't actively have a need for. IMO however, it has been poorly implemented.
