PDP Number: 2007-01 Direct Internet Resource Assignments to End Users from the RIPE NCC
Dear Colleagues,
The draft documents for the proposal described in 2007-01 have been published. Please note that this is a new version of the proposal. The impact analysis that was conducted for this proposal has also been published.
The proposal states that a contractual relationship between an End User and a sponsoring Local Internet Registry (LIR) or the RIPE NCC must be established before the End User receives Internet number resources (Autonomous System (AS) Numbers, Provider Independent (PI) IPv4 and IPv6 address space, Internet Exchange Point (IXP) and anycasting assignments) directly from the RIPE NCC. It also states that the text in the policy should mention more explicitly that PI assignments cannot be sub-assigned.
in short: - I still support a policy regarding End-Users needing a contractual relationship with RIPE or(!) an active(!) LIR - I support the retroactive nature. - I still have mixed feelings about supporting a 'non-complete policy'. Non-complete means, we still haven't seen a proposal for an actual contract, how it might look like and numbers (money) in it. But it's probably better that we seperate the policy & contractual things, indeed. Especially if theres the RIPE _OR_ LIR choice. ==> I can support this policy, with some minor reservations. . o O(and i hope i really noticed all the smallprint that comes with that policy change, after all, it's sunday afternoon here and i might have missed a problematic point :-) -- ======================================================================== = Sascha Lenz SLZ-RIPE slz@baycix.de = = Network Desgin & Operations = = BayCIX GmbH, Landshut * PGP public Key on demand * = ========================================================================
