Hi all,
Dear colleagues,
Following the discussion about the RIPE Database Proxy Service, we have investigated several options for the future of the service. I'd like to first give you an overview of the issue at hand. A detailed analysis is provided below that for those of you who would like to see the finer details. [...]
well i still don't see much need for the service i must admit, but if some people want to use it... I actually would prefer making this a member-only or paid-service, but after re-reading some parts of the discussion about the issue before, i guess the free-but-contract-based approach might be the most intelligent choice without upsetting those who use it and it seems to be without negative impact for the rest of the members. ==> Option 2a -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Kind Regards Sascha Lenz [SLZ-RIPE] Senior System- & Network Architect
