Personally, I believe this is a wise decision as it would introduce
costs
and rules that would ultimately destroy the network. (See above link)
What rules would destroy the network? I'm very curious as to more
details about those lines.
If the fees could be waved in their entirety, would you be open to the
signing of an RSA?
...
As for voting members, running for office, etc.... I don't believe
44net is
incorporated or a non-profit. I don't believe there is a board of
directors nor shareholders. Thus, I think it's a little premature to
call
for candidacy until there is a board to campaign for a seat upon. I
don't
recall reading any bylaws either. If there was, there would be legal
requirements under incorporation as well as IRS filings which I don't
believe exist.
The IP space is owned by
Amateur Radio Digital Communications
per the whois.
ARIN requires a legal entity to exist in order to receive the IP space.
44/8 is a special case. In many aspects, it's a miniature IANA in that
the
entire netblock covers the entire globe and not any particular country.
Lots of folks have /8 that covers the globe. Most of the large carriers
for example. Please don't compare yourself to IANA. :)
