I don't understand the motivation. What kind of organisation would have so much "not Internet connected" infrastructure that renumbering would be a significant burden but not be able to afford the RIPE NCC's annual membership fee? Looking at the fees published at https://www.ripe.net/publications/ripe-ncc-organisational-documents/charging-schemes they appear to have gone down over the last decade. Is there a class of organisation that has lots of infrastructure but can't budget for these relatively modest annual fees? And if the registry or registries you propose are charging so much less, or even free at the point of use, how can they provide a resilient and robust set of registry and DNS services that will last for as long as the users need? I'd love to get a better understanding of the needs of the anticipated user base and the risks that they need to protect themselves from.
