Hi Brajesh,

On b)

My initial feelings are that no, APNIC should not be involved in Internet
Security matters.  This is because they are not a law enforcement
organisation.  They are also not lawyers or familiar with the laws of the
53 economies in their region, much less the entire world, which is more
applicable for the Internet.

That said, I do believe that they should co-operate with any particular
forum or body that can be put together to explore such areas.

On c) Sorry, You need to explain what you mean.I don't exactly understand
what you are trying to say.  190% of what?

Essentially, NIR's perform functions for APNIC - as such in an outsourced
model.  They do not however remove all the functions required of APNIC.
 NIR's should charge appropriately for the work they do.  If they do not
charge enough to cover their upstream costs to APNIC, that would seem to be
their issue, not APNICs.

If an NIR is not viable financially, then they should hand back their
functions to APNIC.  Also, NIR's are not for-profit businesses, so they
should at least be covering their costs.  Again, if they can't they should
be charging more appropriately.

Are the NIR's financial status open to the public?  I would be interested
to see the financial reports of India's NIR, Japan, CNNIC, KRNIC, etc.  It
would be interesting to see how they stack up against each other, their
revenue models and so on.

So Brajesh... can you provide me with the financial statements for the
India NIR?
