I don’t see how a member organisation can run a vote (or poll) that excludes members from voting based on their location or nationality. While I understand “why” the suggestion was made I can’t see how that would work legally. -- Mr Michele Neylon Blacknight Solutions Hosting, Colocation & Domains https://www.blacknight.com/ https://blacknight.blog/ Intl. +353 (0) 59 9183072 Direct Dial: +353 (0)59 9183090 Personal blog: https://michele.blog/ Some thoughts: https://ceo.hosting/ ------------------------------- Blacknight Internet Solutions Ltd, Unit 12A,Barrowside Business Park,Sleaty Road,Graiguecullen,Carlow,R93 X265,Ireland Company No.: 370845 From: members-discuss <members-discuss-bounces at ripe.net> on behalf of Serg Galat <greysticky at gmail.com> Date: Wednesday, 23 March 2022 at 16:30 To: Piotr Karwowski <piotr at karwos.hk> Cc: Cynthia Revström via members-discuss <members-discuss at ripe.net> Subject: Re: [members-discuss] Legal compliance doubts [EXTERNAL EMAIL] Please use caution when opening attachments from unrecognised sources. Dear Piotr, RIPE as a community can solve this by voting on two positions: 1. Should RIPE NCC allow russian LIRs to postpone their payments? 2. Should RIPE NCC allow ukrainian LIRs to postpone their payments? Ukrainian and russian LIRs shall not vote in this poll. Let the community to decide.
