It looks to me that the board needs to be re-assured that RIPE Atlas is valuable enough for the membership to justify the cost. Between the lines I read basic support but a desire to hear a consistent story and success stories of benefit to the membership.
As an Anchor host, I find Atlas useful to help us ensure that the interconnections between our network and "The Internet" are working properly, and are monitored properly. "Local" measurements are just not as good as having a swarm of probes (and Anchors) widely distributed across the 'net. This is why we're sponsoring our Anchor, and are happy to pay our share of the Atlas costs. Gert Doering -- NetMaster -- have you enabled IPv6 on something today...?
