by Peter Hessler 19 May '23

19 May '23

I support this proposal. I initially was confused on the second clause of the new text for section 3.3, but it became clear when I read the entire context within the new proposal. -peter -- Weinberg's First Law: Progress is made on alternate Fridays.

Chair re-appointment - RIPE86
by Erik Bais 17 May '23

17 May '23

Dear Working group, As you might remember, the WG Chairs are appointed for a set term as that reminds us now and then, for both the WG Chair as the WG, to think about if we are still happy with the current chair setup. More insight on the terms can be found at the AP-WG page on the RIPE website: https://www.ripe.net/participate/ripe/wg/active-wg/ap This RIPE86, the first term of both James Kennedy and Leo Vegoda is done and both stated that they would be more than happy to do another term. As the co-Chair of AP-WG, I'm glad that both want to run again for the stability of the WG, however in the end it is up to the WG if you are as well. So during the AP-WG session, we will have time in the agenda to ask the WG if you like to proceed with the current WG Chair setup. If you to replace one or both WG Chairs, please let me know up front and I will contact you to ask a couple questions in regards of introduction .. and we will ask the WG if they would like a WG chair change. We like to hear in the WG if you like to support the current WG chairs (or not) ... this can be done by a reply on this email, or during the meeting. See you all next week in Rotterdam. Regards, Erik Bais Co-Chair AP-WG

Checking interest in the community for changing IPv4 assignments policy
by Jeroen Lauwers 17 May '23

17 May '23

Hi Everyone, Now RIPE 86 is around the corner Tore and I would like to check if there is any interest in changing the way of making assignments in the IPv4 policy. At this moment we got 3 major points coming repetitively back from the community. 1. The current policy asks for a lot of repetitive work in making these assignments and it would be nice if, with a policy change, a lot of this repetitive work could be taken away. 2. There is a lot of under and over-assigning in the RIPE DB where a policy change would be beneficial to take some of the reasons away for this. 3. Policy 6.3 “Network Infrastructure and End User Networks” can be interpreted differently for what the right use case is. Including the feedback from the previous policy proposal, we are thinking about introducing AGGREGATED-BY-LIR status just as in the IPv6 policy. In this way, we can aggregate multiple assignments into one AGGREGATED-BY-LIR assignment which we think would result in improving the above-mentioned points. We would like to check what the community thinks about this plan and if there is enough positive feedback we would like to make a concept proposal from it and present this at RIPE86. Kind regards, Jeroen

2023-01 - New Version Policy Proposal (Reducing IXP IPv4 assignment default size to a /26)
by Angela Dall'Ara 16 May '23

16 May '23

Dear colleagues, RIPE policy proposal 2023-01, "Reducing IXP IPv4 assignment default size to a /26" is now available for discussion again. The goal of this proposal is to reduce the default size of IPv4 assignments for IXPs from a /24 to /26 and clarifies the return of the assignments previously issued for their IXP peering LAN. Following the last round of discussion, this proposal has been updated and it is now at version 2.0. The main difference from version 1.0 is that IXPs are not required to implement the exchange of IPv4 routing information over IPv6 before requesting an assignment larger than a /24. You can find the full proposal at: https://www.ripe.net/participate/policies/proposals/2023-01 As per the RIPE Policy Development Process (PDP), the purpose of this four-week Discussion Phase is to discuss the proposal and provide feedback to the proposer. At the end of the Discussion Phase, the proposers, with the agreement of the WG Chairs, will decide how to proceed with the proposal. The PDP document can be found at: https://www.ripe.net/publications/docs/ripe-781 We encourage you to review this proposal and send your comments to address-policy-wg(a)ripe.net before 4 April 2023. Kind regards, Angela Dall'Ara Policy Officer RIPE NCC

2023-02 Review Phase (Minimum Size for IPv4 Temporary Assignments)
by Angela Dall'Ara 26 Apr '23

26 Apr '23

Dear colleagues, Policy proposal 2023-02, "Minimum Size for IPv4 Temporary Assignments", is now in the Review Phase. This policy proposal recommends setting the minimum assignment size for IPv4 temporary assignments to a /24,while still allowing for a smaller assignment if requested by the End User. This policy proposal also allows routing requirements to justify the request for more than a /24 for research purposes. The RIPE NCC has prepared an impact analysis on this proposal to support the community’s discussion. You can find the proposal and impact analysis at: _https://www.ripe.net/participate/policies/proposals/2023-02_ _https://www.ripe.net/participate/policies/proposals/2023-02#impact-analysi… And the draft documents at: _https://www.ripe.net/participate/policies/proposals/2023-02/draft_ As per the RIPE Policy Development Process (PDP), the purpose of this four-week Review Phase is to continue discussion of the proposal taking the impact analysis into consideration, and to review the full draft RIPE Policy Document. At the end of the Review Phase, the Working Group (WG) Chairs will determine whether the WG has reached rough consensus. It is therefore important to provide your opinion, even if it is simply a restatement of your input from the previous phase. We encourage you to read the proposal, impact analysis and draft document and to send any comments to address-policy-wg(a)ripe.net before 2 May 2023. Kind regards, Angela Dall'Ara Policy Officer RIPE NCC
