So doing that may lead to a situation where the
RIPE NCC membership ends up paying the whole bill. I would actually
like that because it makes the measurements even more independent
and I would not have to invest time into making agreements with the
TLD admins, billing, etc. pp.
But is this acceptable to the RIPE NCC memebrship in the long run?
Comments please!
I'm not a paying member of RIPE NCC, so my views don't count.
However, I would like to see this sort of monitoring extended by
RIPE NCC to all available TLDs, paid for by RIPE NCC. Indeed, I am
moving closer to having my own co-lo, and once I do I plan on setting
up my own monitoring tools for all TLDs, for my own purposes. I'll
probably extend that to sharing lame delegation data with Rob Thomas,
etc....
If you are concerned about the cost, you could place a copyright
on the collected data so that re-use for RIPE NCC members does not
incur an additional charge, and perhaps allow academic re-use by
non-RIPE NCC members to likewise be without fee, but for-profit
non-RIPE NCC members would be required to contact you first and
arrange to pay a fee if they wanted to reuse the data or the results.
At that point, it basically comes down to how much enforcement of
the copyright you would want to participate in, and how you could
make the fee payment scheme at least cover its own administrative
costs.
