Andy, It is interested how you call for transparency but don't support this initiative for more transparency. The NIR's should be subject to the same level of transparency and reporting that APNIC is being asked to do.
Especially if there are calls to reduce the fees charged to NIR's. I think the community needs to see financial reporting to know whether to support such a call. The call may be completely valid, but how can it be evaluated without context? Because honestly, if an NIR is doing well, the call for fee reductions are a bit inappropriate. ...Skeeve *Skeeve Stevens - Senior IP Broker* *v4Now - *an eintellego Networks Company [email protected] ; www.v4now.com Phone: 1300 239 038; Cell +61 (0)414 753 383 ; skype://skeeve facebook.com/v4now ; <http://twitter.com/networkceoau> linkedin.com/in/skeeve twitter.com/theispguy ; blog: www.theispguy.com IP Address Brokering - Introducing sellers and buyers On Wed, Apr 30, 2014 at 11:19 PM, Andy Linton <[email protected]> wrote: > I agree with Masato that this has nothing to do with the Policy SIG whose > charter is to deal with addressing policy.
