members vote at the RIPE AGM, to select one out of a number of possible
charging schemes proposed by the board (or just "this is the new one,
accept it or not?"). Since this is about money, it's real voting - and
of course the members are free to ignore whatever arguments the community
brings forward.
Note that there *was* a fee for ASNs, which led to massive complaints by
some people at an ENOG meeting, and then the NCC management promised
"to do away with it" - so the next charging scheme proposed did not include
the ASN fee anymore (and the members had the choice of "approve" or "keep
the old one, which might not give us enough moneyz to fund all the toys,
so drama").
Politics and smoke filled rooms at its best.
