Dear IPv6 Working Group,

 

Benedikt Stockebrand, who has been one of the co-chairs of the IPv6 Working Group since RIPE 69

has announced he wishes to step down at the RIPE 87 meeting in Rome, at the end of his term.

 

Thus, we have a call for candidates.

The term of a IPv6 WG co-chair is three years. A current co-chair may stand for

re-selection at the end of their term or may resign voluntarily at any time.

 

What is the IPv6 WG doing:

The working group activities may be anything useful in helping people to deploy IPv6,

and to manage IPv4/IPv6 co-existence. These activities include:

 

    Outreach

    Education

    Sharing deployment experiences

    Discussing and fixing operational issues

 

The co-chairs also prepare the program for the IPv6 WG session at the ripe meetings.

 

The working group will cooperate with operators and others, both inside and outside the

networking industry, to share resources and combine efforts.

 

The tasks and expectations of a WG co-chair are described here:

https://www.ripe.net/publications/docs/ripe-692 

 

A WG co-chair must comply with the Code of Conduct:

If you feel you are interested in this or have any questions on this, you can drop the current

co-chairs a note ipv6-wg-chair@ripe.net

We kindly request you to respond at latest Friday 10-November-2023 midday CET (Amsterdam),

when the call for candidates will be closed.

 

After this we will announce the candidates on the list, and you can express your support.

The official selection will take place at the RIPE 87 Meeting in Rome during the IPv6 Working Group session.

 

On behalf of the IPv6 WG co-chairs,

 

Ray    

RIPE IPv6 Working Group co-Chair
