While the technical discussion is very important, please also do not loose site
of the fact that it is not RIPEs role to act as a regulator. You cannot restrict
a companies (or individuals) ability to carry out normal business because you
think they are 'too small'. Be careful with what a policy says or a nice
committee from an EU competition commision will want to talk to you.
