Why not just talk to an established LIR, and request the addresses=20
through them? Since you won't hand out addresses to customers I don't=20
see the need for you to become a LIR yourself, you just need PI=20
address space. As a plus that would probably cost you less than
becoming a RIPE member yourself.
