[Community-Discuss] Resolution 201604.274 about Set-Up fees

[sergekbk]

Hello Diana,
Actually each RIR set the fees model which fit it's region and its community needs. So nothing wrong with your suggestion at all.

For the case of our region, AFRINIC already gives 50% discount  to NREN's and also waives fees for critical infrastructures like IXP's.

In fact, other RIR like APNIC treat  members in least developped countries differently.  See link below.

BOD and Executive will have to see if this can fit our AFRINIC region needs and report to the community.

Kind Regards.

i strongly agree.  afrninc should pay us to take address space from
them.  this would make my business a bit easier.

fwiw, i believe fees are set by the boards (or equivalents) of all the
other rirs.  the board, and execs, are responsible that income meets
expenses.  and with responsibility must go authority.

has no one noticed the british insanity in which the country eats its
children?  i am hoping that the states does not follow.  there is no
need for the afrinic community to do so.
