[news] 159th RIPE NCC Executive Board Meeting - Summary Notes
by hph+announce＠ripe.net 15 Jul '22

15 Jul '22

Dear RIPE NCC members, The RIPE NCC Executive Board held its 159th Meeting from 30 June - 1 July 2022, and the minutes from the meeting are now available. Minutes of the 159th Meeting: https://www.ripe.net/about-us/executive-board/minutes/2022/minutes-159th-ex… The Executive Board publishes the minutes of its meetings so that the workings of the Board and the decisions it makes are transparent to the membership that it represents. The following is a summary of the main items from the meetings. Further details are available in the minutes. ----------------------- Main Items ----------------------- - Hans Petter Holen reported on the organisation structure and executive team developments, leadership training, staff retention, objectives for 2022, external audits to improve the Registry’s governance and the course for sustainability strategy. - Hans Petter Holen asked the Board for direction on the preparations for the Activity Plan and Budget 2023, considering the model for estimating revenue, inflation and cost increases. - At the General Meeting May 2022, the Board was asked if the RIPE NCC could donate to the ‘Keep Ukraine Connected’ initiative. The Board shared that the RIPE NCC does not have the ability to make such a donation at this time since there is no provision in its charter to make humanitarian donations. However, the Board is fully behind other initiatives and fully supports the time and resources of staff and their expertise, as well as taking advantage of the RIPE NCC’s position as an organisation with a global reach. - Athina Fragkouli presented a project proposal to identify a potential corporate structure for the RIPE NCC that is compliant with legal requirements affecting its operations in the RIPE NCC’s service region and mitigates relevant risks. - RIPE Chair Mirjam Kühne shared her report on the latest developments in the RIPE community, including the positive response to the RIPE 84 meeting organisation, preparations for the upcoming RIPE 85 meeting, and an update to the RIPE Policy Development Process (PDP). - Christian Kaufmann has been selected to serve for a three-year term on Seat 10 of the ICANN Board of Directors, and he will not seek re-election for the Board in May 2023. Christian already wanted to distribute the Board Chair's functions to the other members, so there is a transfer period before the start of his term in September 2022. - Fergal Cunningham presented a review of the last General Meeting, the topics brought forward by members and a review of the online voting system. The last two General Meetings revealed some issues with the reporting of the voting, and other voting solutions are being considered. The Board asked Fergal to proceed with replacing the online voting system before the next General Meeting. - Athina Fragkouli shared an update on the moderation of the members-discuss mailing list. The Board discussed the moderation process, agreed to continue moderation for another year and adopted the document ‘Members-Discuss Mailing List Moderation’. ---------------------------- Resolutions Adopted ---------------------------- - The RIPE NCC Executive Board approves the minutes of EB#156, EB#157 and EB#158. - The RIPE NCC Executive Board approves the Treasury Statute June 2022 with the agreed-upon deviations. - The RIPE NCC Executive Board approves that the RIPE NCC will carry out an internal impact analysis on the operational details of a possible new structure. - The RIPE NCC Executive Board authorises the RIPE NCC Managing Director to negotiate, review and sign on behalf of the RIPE NCC the revised NRO Memorandum of Understanding. - The RIPE NCC Executive Board resolves to designate the Board Chair functions as required by Articles 8.3 of the RIPE NCC Articles of Association as of 1 September 2022 as follows: Ondřej Filip as Chair, Raymond Jetten as Treasurer, and Piotr Strzyżewski as Secretary. It also resolves to designate Remco van Mook as the NRO EC representative and Maria Häll as the CPF representative. - The RIPE NCC Executive Board resolves to continue the moderation of the members-discuss mailing list that was imposed based on the resolution EB#155-R-01 until July 2023. Also, the Executive Board resolves to adopt the document “Members-Discuss Mailing List Moderation”. - The RIPE NCC Executive Board approves the text of “RIPE NCC Learning Events Terms and Conditions”, which specifies the terms for registration and participation in a RIPE NCC Learning Event. - The RIPE NCC Executive Board adopts the proposed amendments to the document “Management Regulations of the RIPE NCC”. Kind regards, Hans Petter Holen Managing Director RIPE NCC
