Your final paragraph hits directly on my situation , That is as soon as
I can get my small network connected again via hardline connections again .
I am not a customer of ARIN except for one asn .
I hold maintainership a couple of pre-arin /24's .
And until a (imo) reasonable contract with pre-arin holders can be
created AND a reasonable fund dispersement calculation with HARD Set $ values
assigned , I will not be a Arin customer except for my one little ASN . Which
when I was assigned that resource was just $100/yr , Imo a reasonable cost .
that cost has now only gone up 50% , Again somewhat reasonable cost , BUT that
cost going UP is of concern to my meager financial status .
I am greatly exasperated that I am not hearing about Public versions of
RPKi repositories in the veign of ALTDB .
In other words a Publicly held and Volunteer based entity .
Blast I wish I had the financial witheral to back such an enterprise .
If I did it would remain totally vounteer & a not for profit & I'd really like
it to be Voluntarilly funded by the Community .
I ask the Community why someone or some entity IS not coming forward and
doing so ?
Sorry about the rambling .
Twyl , JimL
