(Germany, for example, would not be a better choice than NL because you need 3 extra FTE to deal with Tax paperwork and nowadays immigration control...) full ack ß)
The netherlands are a fairly good choice as far as history teaches us, other, especially non-EU countries in the RIPE service region, not so much. Some due to government stability, others due to corruption, again others due to human rights issues, general cost of living, etc. As someone who lives in EU / germany and in multiple countries of the RIPE service area i can understand why many RIPE memnbers from EU does that seems so while others (especially many from non-EU countries) have a different opinion about what they see as "reliability" or "stability" - not at least the (especially over the last decade - not to mention political games from the EU behind some of that) changed / exploded EU-regulation (which discriminates non EU citizens / companies / jurisdictions and is much higher then in many non-EU countries).
