What organizations have had the same low turn-out for AGMs and interest in the agendas of the AGMs? Even if you could not attend the AGM, did you bring up the issues on the mailinglists? Remember that RIPE NCC is not there by it self. It is there for the reasons, and in the way we have choose to have it. It has changed the ways we have voted (or abstained from voted) it to change. We might not like the outcome, but the better that we are now discussing this and that we had the KPMG survey to act as a starting point to move on.
And why is personal attendence at an AGM required to propose and vote on ongoing use of members funds ? I am amazed that no one has proposed any sort of online system. Or would that remove too much power from the professional bureaucrats that live off RIPE ? Peter
