Implementation Timeline for Phasing Out Text-Based Email Request Forms
by Ingrid Wijte 07 Oct '14

07 Oct '14

Dear colleagues, On 5 August 2014, we sent a request for feedback on our proposal to phase out email-based request forms: https://www.ripe.net/ripe/mail/archives/ncc-services-wg/2014-August/002850.… The two-month period for comments has ended, and we would like to thank you all for your feedback. We have taken into account the concerns raised and adjusted the planned implementation accordingly. A summary of the implementation timeline is provided at the bottom of this email. The main concern we received was that the time frame for members to adjust their internal processes was not long enough. We will therefore extend the proposed implementation to the end of May 2015. As of today, the APIs are available for the following resource requests: - IPv4 First Allocation - IPv6 First Allocation - IPv6 Provider Independent (PI) Assignment - Autonomous System (AS) Number Assignment You can find the APIs and the accompanying documentation at: https://www.ripe.net/data-tools/developer-documentation/resource-request-api We ask that you test these APIs in the coming three months (until 31 January 2015) and check that they are compatible with your workflow. Based on the feedback we receive, the final APIs will be deployed at the end of February 2015. We will then archive the email-based request forms and supporting notes that are published on www.ripe.net. Our systems will continue to accept the email-based request forms for a further three months. From the end of May 2015, email-based request forms will no longer be accepted. Another concern raised was with regards to a fall-back mechanism if the LIR Portal and APIs are not available due to technical problems. In such a situation, we currently accept emails to request resources without syntax changes, and we will continue to have this fall-back mechanism in the future. As a final note, over the past weeks we have worked to improve and simplify the request forms in the LIR Portal. Work has now been completed on all forms. The simplified process means that you can complete a request for any Internet resource quickly and easily. We will also publish the information needed to request resources in a document that replaces the supporting notes and maintains a high level of transparency. We appreciate your feedback on further improvements. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us at: <requestforms(a)ripe.net> Timeline Summary 1 October 2014 - End of initial comment period on new process 7 October 2014 - New APIs for resource requests made available 31 January 2015 - End of comment period on new APIs 28 February 2015 - Deployment of final APIs and archive email-based request forms and supporting notes 30 May 2015 - Email resource requests no longer accepted Best regards Ingrid Wijte Registration Services Assistant Manager RIPE NCC

RIPE NCC Survey 2013 - Key Findings and Results
by Serge Radovcic 09 Sep '14

09 Sep '14

Dear colleagues, The RIPE NCC Survey 2013 collected feedback from more than 3,600 of our members and stakeholders across 75 of the 76 countries in our service region. The Oxford Internet Institute (OII) analysed the survey data and produced a list of 48 key findings, which we published in November 2013. The RIPE NCC examined these findings, took action on them where appropriate and produced a report on these actions. The RIPE NCC Survey 2013 Key Findings and Results document is now available: https://www.ripe.net/lir-services/member-support/info/surveys/ripe-ncc-surv… By publishing this document, we aim to increase transparency around the actions taken by the RIPE NCC as a result of the survey. While all of the key findings were addressed and much progress has been made, there are still areas that can be further improved. The RIPE NCC will continue to explore ways of improving the services we provide to our membership and to the RIPE community. If you would like to comment on the findings and actions, or on the document itself, please let us know at <feedback(a)ripe.net>. In November 2014, the RIPE NCC will carry out a number of lightweight focus groups around our service region to look at the RIPE NCC's progress and identify areas for further action. A report will be produced following these focus group sessions and will be shared with the membership. The RIPE NCC aims to survey its members and stakeholders every three years. The next survey is scheduled for mid-2016. Kind regards, Serge Radovcic Chief Communications Officer RIPE NCC
