Andrea, the working day of 28th of May was just finished, but I don't get any e-mail ;) Really, there are two questions still open: 1. If some net is our customer, have the agreement with us, but was NOT registered with our LIR - what we should do? 2. The contract should include annual payments, and in good case we should put the actual sum inside the contract (instead of "please sign here you should pay wedontknowhowmuch later). The LIR billing scheme or even all the scheme candidates (I have to keep in mind the worst one for me when I deal with my users, of course) will appear later than we have to upload contracts. P.S. Will end users receive the notification directly from RIPE NCC "OK, we now have approved your contract, you can sleep relaxed" after the contract have been approved? I think it is a very very good idea. Andrea Cima wrote:

Dear colleagues,
We are pleased to announce that the RIPE NCC has implemented the second phase of "Direct Internet Resource Assignments to End Users from the RIPE NCC".
In this phase the RIPE NCC will contact all LIRs to request information regarding existing direct resources requested through that LIR. This will be done via the LIR Portal. All LIR Portal users will receive a notification email on 28 May 2009 detailing the process.
Details of the implementation are available at: http://www.ripe.net/rs/pi-existing-assignments.html
Timelines:
Before September 2009: LIRs need to indicate which resources should stay with that LIR. This will affect the charging scheme for 2010.
Before 31 December 2009: LIRs must upload contracts and registration papers for all resources still associated with that LIR.
More information on the requirements of the contractual agreement can be found here: http://www.ripe.net/membership/lir-end-user-requirements.html
Kind regards,
Andrea Cima RIPE NCC
