That’s true. Though in the past, the RIPE Chairman could ask for the meeting fee to be waived whenever someone who lacked funding was making a significant contribution to the meeting. This didn’t extend to travel and accommodation. IIUC that element was added when the RIPE Fellowship thing (aimed at research students?) started.
