New Draft RIPE Policy Development Process (PDP) document - for your review
by Mirjam Kuehne 25 Nov '21

25 Nov '21

Dear colleagues, The RIPE Policy Development Process (PDP) was last updated in 2018. With experience from the first appeal and some other suggested improvements to the process, we felt it was time to work on a new version. The draft version can be found here: https://www.ripe.net/publications/docs/ripe-documents/other-documents/polic… Please send any feedback, questions or suggestions to this list. We will also reserve some time during the RIPE 83 Community Plenary for this topic. We will then issue a last call for consensus after RIPE 83. Here is a list of the most significant changes: - We shortened the introduction to clarify that this document deals with policy only. - We added a section prior to going into details about the formal process: It strongly suggests that an idea for a new policy or a change in policy is first discussed on the relevant mailing list before it enters the formal PDP. This can potentially save the proposer and the community a lot of time and can lead to a better result in the end. - We clarified that the relevant WG chairs need to summarize the state of the discussion after each phase. This will make clear what the state of the discussion is and if community members are required to restate their position. - We clarified the appeals process, especially who should recuse themselves, and we added clear deadlines and responsibilities. - We added a section 5. that describes how the PDP is changed (by community consensus). - In the Policy Proposal Template in Appendix B we added a point 11.a.: Motivation for the proposal. - We made a number of editorial changes in places where it was not clear who is tasked to do what on which list (e.g. the WG chairs or the RIPE NCC Policy Officer). For reference, here is the current version of the PDP: https://www.ripe.net/publications/docs/ripe-710 Kind regards, Mirjam & Niall RIPE Chair Team

But this is not law, it is a procedural document, and procedural documents can include suggestions even if national laws often don't. The argument that it can't contain suggestions just because normal national laws often don't, is extremely silly. -Cynthia On Thu, Nov 25, 2021 at 1:36 PM JORDI PALET MARTINEZ < jordi.palet(a)consulintel.es> wrote: > That’s my point, we are actually writing “our law” > > > > > > > > Saludos, > > Jordi > > @jordipalet > > > > > > > > El 25/11/21 13:34, "Cynthia Revström" <me(a)cynthia.re> escribió: > > > > Yes but this is NOT law as Sander said, we are not writing a law here. > > This is a procedural document in a community, not a law. > > > > -Cynthia > > > > On Thu, Nov 25, 2021 at 1:30 PM JORDI PALET MARTINEZ via ripe-list < > ripe-list(a)ripe.net> wrote: > > Hi Sander, > > Just count how many proposals have reached consensus even if they have not > got a previous discussion in the list.

RIPE Database Purposes in 2020s and Beyond
by denis walker 17 Nov '21

17 Nov '21

Colleagues Following on from the work of the DBTF, I have published a presentation about the purposes of the RIPE Database in the 2020s and beyond and also raised the question of a RIPE Database Policy. It is available here: https://ripe83.ripe.net/wp-content/uploads/presentations/DB_WG-Denis_Walker… The last time we had community consensus on the purposes of the DB was in 2011. It is time for a new consensus. Please watch the presentation if you can before the DB-WG session at RIPE 83. After a 2 slide summary I will take questions. We need to have a full and open debate on the DB-WG mailing list following RIPE 83 in order to achieve a new consensus. cheers denis co-chair DB-WG

What Happened to RACI in 2021?
by Gergana Petrova 17 Nov '21

17 Nov '21

Dear colleagues, RACI funds help young academics present their research at RIPE NCC events -- but you don't need financial support to take part in virtual events. So what did we use the money for this year? We decided to keep supporting academia and awarded two projects the money to let them happen: - Artificial Intelligence (AI) Methods and Tools for Improving Network Monitoring Practices (AI4NetMon) - Mapping Connectivity and the Digital Space in Central Asia Read about why we decided to fund academic research, the selection process and more about the projects themselves here: https://labs.ripe.net/author/gergana_petrova/raci-funding-in-2021-planning-… We'd love to hear your thoughts - either in the comments of the article or simply reply to this email.
