Voluntary Transfer Lock V2
by Максим Смелянец 30 Aug '23

30 Aug '23

Hello for everyone! In general I agree with the new policy text, thanks for all your efforts and work. But I also have some questions and wishes. There are some notices in the Impact Analysis as «There might be situations where the RIPE NCC cannot enforce the Lock. If the RIPE NCC receives a legally binding decision/order related to Internet number resources under a Lock, the RIPE NCC will have to comply with the order. The RIPE NCC might also not be able to enforce the Lock if it is against any applicable laws or regulations». Can you concretize what does it mean «binding decision/order»? And when you write about the «any applicable lows and regulations» - what exactly it meant by this? The same applies to the text of the policy itself in the paragraph Implementation Choices when you wrote about restrictions from any applicable laws or regulations. It is not clear what applicable lows do you mean. Because for example for Ukrainian holders it can be read as you can apply also low of occupying authorities. And my wish is to clarify all exceptions of the inability to enforce the lock and provide a comprehensive list of cases that constitute an exception, or provide criteria for determining the relevant situations in further accompanying documents or in the final version of the policy. Because the lack of clarity may lead to inconsistent decision-making and the implementation of the RIPE NCC blocking mechanism. With best regards to everyone, Maxim Smelyanets.

2023-03 Review Phase (Voluntary Transfer Lock)
by Angela Dall'Ara 14 Aug '23

14 Aug '23

Dear colleagues, Policy proposal 2023-03, “Voluntary Transfer Lock”, is now in the Review Phase. The goal of this proposal is to allow resource holders whose resources are registered with the RIPE NCC to inform them which of these resources must not be transferred for a certain amount of time. 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/2023-03 https://www.ripe.net/participate/policies/proposals/2023-03#impact-analysis And the draft documents at: https://www.ripe.net/participate/policies/proposals/2023-03/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 ncc-services-wg(a)ripe.net before 31 August 2023. Kind regards, Angela Dall'Ara Policy Officer RIPE NCC

Discussion summary for 2023-03
by Rob Evans 01 Jul '23

01 Jul '23

All, As part of the policy development process, it is the role of the chairs to summarise the discussion at the end of the discussion phase. As we are now at that point, and we are moving towards the review phase when the documents are ready, here is a brief summary. • 8th March 2023: The RIPE Policy Development Officer announces the policy to the ncc-services-wg and policy-announce lists, with a deadline of the 6th April for discussion. • 21st March 2023: One of the co-chairs of the WG reminds the list we are half-way through the discussion phase and invites comments. • 6th April 2023: Original discussion phase closes with no comments received. • 14th April 2023: Request to the list not to require notarised documents for the transfer lock. • 26th April 2023: One of the proposal authors emails the discussion list to ask for discussion. Over the next couple of days there are a few expressions of support, but also several queries as to whether this should be handled in the PDP. • 3rd May 2023: WG co-chair asked the RIPE NCC’s legal counsel about the requirement for a policy. • 4th May 2023: Athina replied with an explanation. Over the next week or so there were a couple of messages discussing Athina’s response, pointing out a clash with RIPE-682, and further discussing whether the proposal should be in the PDP. • 15th May 2023: Discussion phase extended to 2nd June. • 24th May to 2nd June 2023: About a dozen more expressions of support. Some further discussion about the means by which the request should be properly authenticated, whether a single director is sufficient via the LIR portal or notarised papers would be required. Hope that helps. Cheers, Rob, Bijal & Kurtis.
