با سلام، نامه‌ی زیر در مورد رای گیری در دومین اجلاس‌ عمومی امسال و یکی از موارد به رای‌گذاشته‌شده است. این تصمیم‌گیری در مورد بازگرداندن مازادِ بودجه به اعضا و یا واریز آن به صندوق ذخیره‌ی RIPE NCC می‌باشد (که شامل ۲۵ درصد مالیات خواهد شد). اگر سوال و یا توضیحی مورد نیاز است، آماده‌ی پاسخگویی هستم. برای رای دادن به این مورد و دیگر عنوان‌های رای‌گیری در اجلاس عمومی، علاوه بر حضور فیزیکی می‌توانید به صورت Online هم در رای‌گیری شرکت کنید. با تشکر، کاوه. > Begin forwarded message: > > From: Axel Pawlik <agm(a)ripe.net> > Subject: [ncc-announce] [GM] Redistribution of RIPE NCC Surplus to Members > Date: 27 Oct 2015 12:04:05 CET > To: ncc-announce(a)ripe.net > Reply-To: agm(a)ripe.net > > Dear colleagues, > > At the General Meeting (GM) on 18 November 2015, the RIPE NCC membership > will vote on whether or not to redistribute the expected financial > surplus for 2015 via a rebate to members. > > This follows the membership’s approval of an updated Standard Service > Agreement (SSA) in November 2014 that allows members to decide annually > on the allocation of the RIPE NCC surplus or deficit.
