22 Jan '25

This message is sent on behalf of the NRO Secretariat. The announcement can be viewed at: https://www.nro.net/concluding-the-icp-2-principles-consultation/ ----------------------------------------------------------- Concluding the ICP-2 principles consultation ----------------------------------------------------------- The feedback period for the proposed ICP-2 principles has officially concluded. Close to 300 responses were received from the different Internet communities associated with each Regional Internet Registry (RIR). The breakdown of responses by region is as follows: APNIC (Asia Pacific): 154 (51.7%) AFRINIC (Africa): 55 (18.5%) RIPE NCC (Europe, Middle East and parts of Central Asia): 36 (12.1%) ARIN (North America and the Caribbeans): 32 (10/7%) LACNIC (Latin America and the Caribbean): 20 (6.7%) Not Applicable: 1 (0.3%) The questionnaire was open from 8 October to 6 December 2024. It allowed participants to share their opinions, rate each principle, and provide additional comments. In the coming weeks, the ASO AC / NRO NC will begin qualitative analysis of the responses, which will be shared with the Internet community. This process focuses on reviewing and updating the fundamental principles of ICP-2, a key document that defines the criteria for recognizing and evaluating RIRs. Updating these principles strengthens transparency, governance, and the operations of the RIRs, reaffirming their accountability to the global Internet community. We would like to thank everyone who participated and provided feedback during this critical process. Your contributions are essential to ensuring that these principles reflect the needs and expectations of our community. Sent on behalf of the NRO NC (ASO AC) ----------------------------------------------------------- Kind regards Ulka Athale RIPE NCC www.ripe.net

RIPE NomCom - Volunteers and Selection
by Jan Zorz - Go6 18 Dec '24

18 Dec '24

Dear RIPE community, The lotteries have produced randomness, and we ran the RFC3797 algorithm. The seeds used are: 8 9 12 18 28 40 - Loterija Slovenije 15.12.2024 20 26 30 33 40 41 - Swissloto 14.12.2024 4 5 41 42 44 45 - Österreichische Lotterien 15.12.2024 Thus, the following 16 volunteers were selected: 1 <- 16, Jean-Daniel PAUGET, HOPUS 2 <- 38, Simon Leinen, Switch 3 <- 19, Wolfgang Zenker, punkt.de GmbH 4 <- 11, Dmytro Kohmanyuk, Hostmaster.UA (Hostmaster llc, Ukraine) 5 <- 45, Kurt Kayser, Kurt Kayser Konsultation 6 <- 10, Tobias Fiebig, Max-Planck Institute for Informatics 7 <- 12, Wolfgang Tremmel, DE-CIX 8 <- 5, Rinse Kloek, Delta Fiber Netherlands 9 <- 29, Matthias Brumm, TKRZ Stadtwerke GmbH 10 <- 39, Sandoche BALAKRICHENAN, Afnic 11 <- 26, Randy Bush, IIJ Research Lab, Arrcus, Inc., RGnet OÜ 12 <- 7, Vasja Križmančič, it.karsolink 13 <- 18, Benno Overeinder, NLnet Labs 14 <- 33, Clément Cavadore, Vedege 15 <- 20, Martin Winter, NetDEF 16 <- 8, Jan Sossi, 2S Computers After running the random selection mechanism, we discovered that Matthias Brumm, from the list of selected candidates, did not meet the selection criteria. Matthias registered for several online RIPE meetings but did not check in for them except for RIPE 89; thanks to Ulka Athale of the meeting secretariat for double-checking this. The procedure RFC3797 section 5.1 suggests keeping the list of volunteers immutable and skipping the selected person in this case . Also, no more than two of these people have the same affiliation. Thus 15 out of 16 selected volunteers meet the criteria for serving on the NomCom. Hence the RIPE NomCom 2025 is: 1 <- 16, Jean-Daniel PAUGET, HOPUS 2 <- 38, Simon Leinen, Switch 3 <- 19, Wolfgang Zenker, punkt.de GmbH 4 <- 11, Dmytro Kohmanyuk, Hostmaster.UA (Hostmaster llc, Ukraine) 5 <- 45, Kurt Kayser, Kurt Kayser Konsultation 6 <- 10, Tobias Fiebig, Max-Planck Institute for Informatics 7 <- 12, Wolfgang Tremmel, DE-CIX 8 <- 5, Rinse Kloek, Delta Fiber Netherlands 10 <- 39, Sandoche BALAKRICHENAN, Afnic 11 <- 26, Randy Bush, IIJ Research Lab, Arrcus, Inc., RGnet OÜ They will choose the next RIPE chair and vice chair. In accordance with ripe-788 the following five volunteers are the ‘reserve’ and might be called upon to fill any vacancies in this order: 12 <- 7, Vasja Križmančič, it.karsolink 13 <- 18, Benno Overeinder, NLnet Labs 14 <- 33, Clément Cavadore, Vedege 15 <- 20, Martin Winter, NetDEF 16 <- 8, Jan Sossi, 2S Computers There is a 7 day challenge period starting now. After this period the selections become definite. In the name of the community, I thank all 52 volunteers for offering to serve. The NomCom will have its first meeting in the second half of January. As a chair I plan to conduct this process as openly as possible and to proactively inform the community about what is going on. This may cause a little traffic on this list ;-). Let us support the NomCom during this process by providing as much well considered input as we can. Jan Žorž, Chair of the RIPE Nominations Committee P.S: For easier checking - here are the links to the lotteries chosen to generate seeds for this process: - Loterija Slovenije https://www.loterija.si/loto/rezultati on 15 December 2024 - Swisslotto https://www.swisslos.ch/de/swisslotto/information/gewinnzahlen/gewinnzahlen… on 14 December 2024 - Österreichische Lotterien https://www.win2day.at/lotterie/lotto on 15 December 2024 Here are the implementations of the RFC3797 algorithm we used. Both produced the results above. - https://github.com/richsalz/ietf-rfc3797-code - https://github.com/mcr/rfc3797/tree/master
