	(1) There is no mechanism in place to restrict or monitor IP disk
usage. 

	(2) As Chris pointed out, there is no way for an IP to check their
disk usage if they wanted to.

	(3) Unless an IP stumbles upon this page informing them of our
membership levels, they just plain flat out do not know about them in the
first place.

	(4) There is no mechanism in place to expire or renew or track
expiry dates on IP accounts. 

	(5) There is no incentive for an organization to go to any
higher level of membership because of 1, 2, 3, and 4 above. 

	(6) There is no policy on IP expirations. Do we turn them off if
they don't renew? What form does renewal take? Does the office now build a
dossier on every IP and file renewal letters? Does the office now send out
notices of expiration? I've said it before and I'll say it again: to make
a working airline, you need to build planes, man them and fuel them, you
don't just type up a flight schedule and nail it to a tree.
