[members-discuss] RIPE DB NRTM access.

Hi, Pawel!

My guess would be that a full snapshot available via ftp is considered not
that NEAR Real Time as the update data stream that you may pull
continuously from the server - they're not trying to sell data there but
the service of that data being streamed.

Although I'd expect that stuff to be available to members without extra pay
- at least one host per member.
