Hi all, One thing which is currently missing from all of our information viz-a-viz Information Providers is our policy with respect to commercial organizations. A quick historical review: it once was the case that all IPs on the CCN were non-commercial and we didn't allow commercial sites. The 1.5 years ago the Board agreed that we would have a 'commercial' or 'small business' category of IPs (i.e. organizations that were explicity 'selling' things or services) and that the fee associated with this would entitle the business to a VDN. Then this category was eliminated and such 'buisness' IPs were merged with other non-commercial IPs with VDNs. Recently we have adjusted our fee structures with respect to VDNs. I may be out of this loop, however, I'd like to know what our current policy is viz commercial/non-commercial? Are we allowing/encouraging them? If so, can they only apply under the CCN Premium Service (i.e. VDN +) or can they apply as a Basic IP member (i.e. no fixed fee)? Have we resolved this issue, or if not can the Board consider what the policy should/will be? Thanks! Chris _._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._.
