Re: [address-policy-wg] RIPE != RIPE NCC

What is missing here is that the RIPE NCC, and its members, are bound by the policies that RIPE comes up with. In reality, this means that < 10 people on a mailing list (some of whom may or may not be sockpuppets) decide how ~12,000 members have to deal with the RIPE NCC.

what is missing here is that, if only LIRs decided policy, a few thousand folk (likely 10 people on a mailing list), would decide policy affecting millions internet users. randy
