Personal attendance is a problem and is one of the issues that came out of the survey. From what I understand easier proxy voting is being worked on as well as on-line voting. Someone from RIPE NCC board or the RIPE NCC can probably give you more details. Are you also saying that having to have the AGM vote is a problem? In that case how would you else want to do it? Voting anytime through out the year if enough people called for a vote? That would make it more or less impossible to make or follow a budget in any reasonable way. > I am amazed that no one has proposed any sort of online system. For voting? Have you read the lir-wg list from this spring and the results of the KPMG survey as well as the presentations made by Axel of suggested improvements? Did you bring this up when you became a RIPE NCC member? I personally think we should have gone for on-line voting earlier and that holding the AGM with the RIPE meetings would have been better. But I haven't blamed the men in black for this, as I have never proposed something else myself. > Or would > that remove too much power from the professional bureaucrats that live > off > RIPE ? Have anyone opposed this? Or are you just assuming that the world is a conspiracy against you? RIPE and the RIPE NCC is only as good as what you help it make with suggestions and constructive comments. - kurtis -
