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. Best regards, Gergana -- Gergana Petrova Community Development RIPE NCC Stationsplein 11, 1012 AB Amsterdam, The Netherlands T: +31 20 535 4444 www.ripe.net
