I would like to participate.

Thank you

> Introduction
> In the course of 2011 the RIPE NCC Management and the RIPE NCC Board
> have put in a lot of effort to propose a new, future proof Charging
> Scheme. Several proposals were announced to the members-discuss
> mailing list in July and after extensive discussion with a variety of
> opinions and new models, the Executive Board decided to propose a
> different model having taken feedback into account. After further extensive discussion
> and comments, this model was voted down by the membership at the last
> General Meeting.
>
> To improve the Charging Scheme process and to get broader input on a
> future Charging Scheme model the Executive Board has decided to create a Task Force,
> representing different groups within the RIPE NCC organisation.
>
> Objectives of the Task Force
>
> The Task Force will have the following objectives:
>
> -	Define the principles of a future Charging Scheme
> -	Propose an improved process for the annual Charging Scheme discussions
> and adoption
> -	Set a pricing structure for several years for Legacy holders
> -	Advise the Executive Board on a discussion or resolution for the
> General Meeting in April 2011
>
> The Task Force will not discuss or set any actual fees or prices.
>
> Participants of the Task Force
> To have an efficient task force the group will have to be limited in size.
> The Executive Board has selected key individuals that have put themselves forward,
> have good understanding of the Charging Scheme and represent a variety
> of member groups.
> The group will consist of participants from 3 groups namely:
>
> -	RIPE NCC staff - Jochem de Ruig, Andrea Cima
> -	RIPE NCC Executive Board – Remco van Mook, Dmitry Burkov
> -	RIPE NCC members (4 representatives)
