Jeroen, thank you for your comments, I think it is important that we agree on the main idea. That's why this proposal was send to the wg for informal discussion, rather then submitted to the PDP. Jeroen Massar wrote on 19-11-2008 14:39: [...]
Thus, if there is going to be a 'meeting policy' then it should be well defined and very generic and also allow every other "Meeting" to make use of it, even if the event is a one-timer. And as we have End-user/LIR payment now, somebody has to foot the bill for them too.
Whether that is going to be a meeting policy, or as Remco suggested a RIPE NCC policy, or just a policy to document that specific assignment is equally fine by me. I leave this to people more experienced in the policy area. Our objective is to get a permanent dedicated assignment for a community meeting. This is not unusual, for example IETF got such assignment from APNIC.
Greets, Jeroen
