08 Jan '15

Dear colleagues, The Consolidated RIR IANA Stewardship Proposal (CRISP) team has published a second draft of the Internet numbers community proposal on the transition of the IANA stewardship. A final call for community feedback has been issued, with the CRISP team planning to submit the finalised proposal to the IANA Stewardship Transition Coordination Group (ICG) on Thursday, 15 January. The second draft of the proposal is available at: http://www.nro.net/crisp-proposal-second-draft There is also a “redline version” that shows all changes made since the first draft: http:/www.nro.net/crisp-proposal-second-draft-change-control The deadline for providing feedback is Monday, 12 January 2015. The CRISP team strongly encourages community members in favour of this proposal to express their support, either via the RIPE Cooperation Working Group mailing list or via the ianaxfer(a)nro.net mailing list, as demonstrated community support may be important later in the IANA stewardship transition process. Some of the key points to note in this second draft: - Additional description on contract details, review committee and intellectual property rights - Description revised on Section V. NITA Requirements and Section VI. Community Process for more clarity - No changes to key elements of the proposal The CRISP team timeline for the coming weeks is as follows: Second draft to be published: 8 Jan 2015 Second draft comments close: 12 Jan 2015 Final proposal to be sent to ICG: 15 Jan 2015 More background on the IANA stewardship transition process is available at: https://www.ripe.net/iana-oversight-transition Details on the CRISP team, including members, timelines and working methods, are available at: https://nro.net/crisp-team Best regards, Paul Rendek Director of External Relations RIPE NCC

IANA Stewardship: Give Feedback on the Draft Proposal From the RIR Communities
by Paul Rendek 19 Dec '14

19 Dec '14

Dear colleagues, The Consolidated RIR IANA Stewardship Proposal (CRISP) team has published the first draft of an Internet numbers community proposal for the future of the IANA stewardship. The draft is available here: https://www.nro.net/wp-content/uploads/CRISP-IANA-PROPOSAL-First-Draft1.pdf This document represents the first effort to bring together the outcomes of IANA stewardship discussions in the five RIR communities. It aligns closely with the principles agreed by the RIPE community: - It proposes a new contractual arrangement between the RIRs and ICANN for ICANN’s continuing management of the IANA functions - It does not seek to change any of the existing global or regional policy development structures - It provides for review of the IANA operator’s performance and compliance with contractual obligations The draft also proposes forming a community-based Review Committee that would produce an annual, non-binding report on the performance of the IANA operator. This concept evolved from the Multistakeholder Oversight Numbers Council (MONC) that was originally proposed by the LACNIC community. Community feedback is being sought on this draft proposal, with a deadline of Monday, 5 January 2015. Feedback can be sent to the global NRO IANA Transfer mailing list, <ianaxfer(a)nro.net>, or can be sent to the appropriate regional mailing lists. The RIPE CRISP representatives will be closely following discussions on the RIPE Cooperation Working Group mailing list, as well as the global discussion.

RIPE Chair report October 2014
by Hans Petter Holen 05 Nov '14

05 Nov '14

I would like to share with you what I have been doing as RIPE Chair since the last RIPE meeting in Warsaw in may now that the RIPE 69 meeting in London is just some days away. The agenda for the RIPE meeting as been published at https://ripe69.ripe.net/programme/meeting-plan/ The Program committee has done a very good job in putting together a program for the week, all working-groups have published their agendas, and most working-groups have started working on wg-chair procedures as agreed at the last wg-chairs meeting. The working-group chairs will meet as usual for lunch on Thursday. The agenda for this meeting can be found at https://www.ripe.net/ripe/groups/wg/cc/agenda/ripe-69-working-group-chair-m… As RIPE Chair I am invited as an observer to the RIPE NCC exec board meetings in order to coordinate activities between RIPE and the RIPE NCC. There have been board meetings in June and September and minutes of the meetings are posted at http://www.ripe.net/lir-services/ncc/executive-board/minutes/2014 The theme of my first half-year as Chair, and before that as Deputy Chair, has been to get to know the community better, trough participating in regional meetings. * MENOG 14 in Dubai, UAE * SEE 3 in Sofia, Bulgaria * ENOG 7, Moscow, Russia * ENOG 8, Baku, Kazakhstan These meetings have given me a better view of the current issues in our region. While we in Western and Northern Europe have a multitude of Internet exchanges to improve regional and national connectivity, there are challenges in the Middle East and further east. International connectivity is also a challenge - limited by available international fibber, and with higher cost than in areas with more competition between fibber providers. Privacy issues were high on the agenda at ENOG. There was a lively discussion on how to deal with government request. It is great to see the participation of these meetings, both in numbers and in content. The technical discussions in the meeting and the corridors, to exchange ideas and solve problems. The RIPE NCC also does outreach to governments in our region. I participated at the High-level meeting in Brussels the RIPE NCC arranged in close cooperation with CENTR, as well as a Law enforcement meeting earlier this year in London. During the summer I went to Toronto Canada for IETF 90, my primary interest was the discussions on the IANA transition. In addition I attended most of the Operational track. The NRO Number Council appointed me to the ICANN NomCom for 2014 and we completed our work and appointed ICANN board members as well as ALAC, GNSO and ccNSO council members. The report from the 2014 NomCom can be found at https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/final-16oct14-en.pdf the was also an urgent appointment of a board member to replace xxx who stepped down unexpectedly during the ICANN week. I was not able to participate in this appointment due to less than 24 hours notice for the meeting. The NomCom also conducted a peer review of our contributions to the committee. The report from this has been published https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/360-review-members-15oct14-en.p… The Number Council was kind enough to reappoint me to the 2014 Non-com, which started its work with a two day meeting following the ICANN meeting in Los Angeles. The call for nominations will be out shortly. This year the NomCom will be appointing 3 board members. Looking at the board composition there is particular need for board members from the African region and the Latin American region, but good candidates from Europe are also welcome. The NRO NC will in addition to the NomCom appointments, appoint one board member, see the announcement at https://www.nro.net/news/aso-ac-call-for-nominations-for-seat-9-on-the-ican… In order to better understand the Internet Governance issues in a broader sense I have participated in * Annual meeting with the Norwegian regulator, Lillesand, Norway * EuroDig, Berlin Germany * IGF2014, Istanbul, Turkey My interest in Eurodig and IGF was the NTIA transition of the IANA function. ICANN had a strong presence at IGF and there were several good discussions on how ICANN accountability can be improved. * ITU Plenipotentiary 2014 in Busan, Korea. The Norwegian Ministry of Transportation and Communication invited me to participate on the Norwegian delegation at the ITU Plenipotentiary 2014 conference in Busan, with the trip funded by the RIPE NCC. The RIPE NCC is a sector member of the ITU-D and participating with its own delegation with Chris, Maxim and Chadic. There are excellent reports from the meeting by Samantha Dickinson athttp://linguasynaptica.com/ as well as live twitter updates, see #Plenipot14 With this short report I hope I have given you some insight into what the RIPE Chair has been doing since the last meeting. Sincerely, Hans Petter Holen RIPE Chair # The above text has also been posted at _http://blog.hph.oslo.net/2014/10/ripe-chair-report-october-2014.html_
