Best, Boris *RIPE Requirements Database Task Force Meeting Notes* 28 September 2020 Attendees: Boris Duval, Nick Hilliard, James Kennedy, Sara Marcolla, Bijal Sanghani, Maria Stafyla, Edward Shryane Agenda: 1. Draft Document Sara and Bijal's draft still need to be reviewed by the DBTF. Nick and Shane will meet in the coming week to discuss their draft and make progress. James and Peter had several meetings since the last DBTF meeting and made progress on their draft. Everybody will share their draft and comments with the task force before 9 October. Maria clarified that the RIPE Database provides access to the public parts of the RIPE Registry. She added that the other parts of the RIPE Registry were out of scope for the task force. Maria, Ed and Boris offered to help out with the document’s structure and to fill existing knowledge gaps in the document. The DBTF is aiming to publish its new draft one week before the DBTF BoF to allow enough time for review. 2. DBTF BoF The DBTF will take place on Monday, 26 October from 16:00-17:00 (UTC+1). The BoF will be announced via the relevant mailing lists and will take place via Meetecho. It is already advertised on the RIPE 81 website: https://ripe81.ripe.net/programme/meeting-plan/bof/ The purpose of this BoF is to discuss the task force’s draft with the community and start building consensus around the document. 3. Summary from the meeting with the RIPE Chair (Mirjam Kühne) The RIPE Chairs (James, Bijal and Shane) met with the RIPE Chair (Mirjam) on 14 September 2020. Timeline update After discussing with the RIPE Chair, the task force decided to revise its original timeline and to set RIPE 82 as the new deadline to hand over the final document. This is now reflected on the DBTF charter’s page: https://www.ripe.net/participate/ripe/tf/rdb-requirements-tf External Communication As the public mailing list is currently closed, the RIPE Chair asked the task force if it was possible to let external messages from the community through the list when relevant.
