RIPE *policy*, on the other hand, is explicitely not made by the RIPE NCC or the RIPE NCC members, but by the RIPE community - which is "individual having an interest" not "corporations being part of a commercial structure".
the reason for this is because the internet serves the entire community, whether LIR, enterprise, or 15 year old with a modem (he has probably upgraded since i last used him as an example). the internet is for everyone, and policy decisions should be open to input from everyone. of course, this does not include sock puppets. randy
