[prop-040] Proposal for APNIC
non-member annual service fee
Annual Member Meeting
8 Sep 2006
APNIC 22, Kaohsiung, Taiwan
Save Vocea
1
Motivation
• Clearer service fee interpretations for
future requests
• Reduce secretariat staff workload
administering non-member accounts
2
Definition
• Non-member account
– Have allocation from APNIC but not wanting to join
as member
– Justify historical resource holding, sign statutory
declaration and non-member agreement
• Historical resource
– IPv4 space, ASN’s originally obtained from
registries such as InterNIC, AUNIC, etc.
– Registration of these resources now transferred
and managed by APNIC
– Resource distributed by APNIC before agreement
was in place (before 1997)
3
Problem
• Inconsistent fees charged to nonmember account holders
– Increased staff time administering billing of
500+ accounts (and increasing!!)
– Varied interpretations
• Fee collection
– Insufficient penalties to deter defaulters
– Time consuming process
– Variable bank fees
– No reward for early payers
