I learnt that there is an association for craft beer producers and one of the rules was that if you have a sharing from an industrial beer producer, you are automatically expelled from the association.
This is not even remotely comparable. If they are expelled from a craft beer association it simply means they are not members of the association anymore. It does *not* mean they cannot get barley, hops or water anymore (except, theoretically, on another continent) Being expelled from the RIPE NCC means, in practical terms, that one cannot conduct one's business in the RIPE Service Region anymore. Why do you think a member would just lie down and take that rather than using any means available to ensure its survival? rgds, SL
