Hi Everyone, Discussion of the charging scheme and how it is applied falls outside the scope of the Address Policy WG.
The RIPE NCC's membership has a discussion list. That is the right place to discuss this topic: https://www.ripe.net/participate/member-support/membership-mailing-lists/subscribing-to-members-discuss It is worth noting that there are active discussions of charging related topics on that list.
