I have quite vocal, as many will recall, about the (IMNSHO) excessive costs of small LIRs, especially those like myself that have "legacy" networks to deal with. I have now read ripe-304 about closures and realised what no one has bothered to hint to me previously; I could close the LIR and let the end-user assignments stand and not have to pay the N thousand euros a year for, basically, nothing. As I do not intend to make further assignments from by allocations - if I did, then the company would have business and so would be able to afford to be an LIR - so is this the best thing to do ? Given, due to a combination of cash flow and the refusal until very recently of the NCC to activate my portal access and so deprive me of services I should be paying for, I am about 2 quarters behind on bills, should I also ask the NCC to consider crediting those bills and closing the registry retrospectively ? Is this a "fair" thing to do ? Or am I a scum-bag and its "all my fault" for not reading all these documents in the time I haven't got to be an LIR ? What do I / my customers lose by closing the LIR assuming no assignments are likely to ever be required ? -- Peter Galbavy Knowtion Ltd.
