Alexey,

 

Ø  We can give 2 initial seats for free for learning in Amsterdam. And if LIR will have training course in another country - he should paid for this service (travel, visa support, hotels for RIPE people). 

I would be completely opposed to this, RIPE has a duty to all European LIR’s and to me the availability of local training is certainly something that should come from the membership fees.   In the UK RIPE have recently expanded training to encompass cities away from London, notably in the north of England – something which we, being based in this area, are grateful for.

 

With that said, I would not be averse to a nominal charge for attendance of RIPE meeting to cover costs of the facilities etc.  Lunch, and any social activities should ideally be covered via Sponsorship.
