I think a lot of us were not going to accept ANY changes to the charging scheme that time round.

Anyway .. history now ..

ASN charges yes/no were their own voting item, fully independent on

the charging scheme A/B/C/D vote.

(Resolution 4 vs. Resolution 3)

But maybe the question itself was loaded and biased...

"Resolution 4:

"In addition to the RIPE NCC Charging Scheme adopted in Resolution 3,

the General Meeting adopts an extra charge of EUR 50 per ASN as an

integral part of the Charging Scheme 2024."

naming this an "extra charge" *without* being very clear that it's not

going to change the overall budget (= by implication, the individual

charges on model A, B, C, D need to become lower) does, indeed,

suggest that it will be "more expensive".

*sigh*

Time for retirement,
