New on the RIPE Labs Podcast: Mapping the Geopolitical Internet
by Alun Davies 01 Aug '23

01 Aug '23

Dear colleagues, In the latest episode of the RIPE Labs podcast, I talk to Louis Pétiniaud about the work he and his colleagues at GEODE have been doing to map the dialectical relationship between the development of the Internet and various geopolitical forces: https://labs.ripe.net/author/alun_davies/mapping-the-geopolitical-internet/ As well as giving us a glimpse into specific power relationships between countries and their influence on the growth of the Internet, the project is a fascinating example of how experts from inside and outside the technical community can build common languages and tools to examine how their domains influence each other. I hope you enjoy the conversation! Best regards, Alun Davies RIPE Labs Editor RIPE NCC

Thank you and goodbye

Dear colleagues, After 16 years I’ll be leaving the RIPE NCC. From my first day in Registration Services until my last day in the RPKI team, it has been an honour and pleasure to work with all of you. The RIPE NCC gave me the opportunity to grow as a person and to keep learning every single day. It also gave me the privilege to travel and teach, to meet thousands of people in our community. Some of you became friends for life. I learned from every trip, and from every person I met, making me a proud ambassador of the RIPE NCC. With the RPKI team, we have set high standards for trust, transparency and security for both RPKI and the rest of RIPE NCC. I'm very proud of this achievement and I will miss working with this dedicated, smart and wonderful team. The RIPE community means a lot to me. So many people volunteer their time to improve the Internet in different ways. I’m grateful for all your work, time and effort. My work with NLNOG and Keep Ukraine Connected will obviously continue and I’m deeply passionate about what we work to achieve in both of those community initiatives and their force for good. Also, I will continue promoting IPv6 adoption wherever I can (by now, that’s in my DNA 😉). My last day will be 31 July. After that, you can always reach the RPKI team at <rpki(a)ripe.net>. Best regards, Nathalie Trenaman

Hello Alexander, Thank you for your email I hear your concerns. I want to assure you that we at the RIPE NCC have not decided to abandon activities in any part of our service region. We do however prioritise the safety of our staff and community members when engaging in areas experiencing times of disputes, disasters and wars. Sadly, our service region has encountered such times on numerous occasions, giving us experience in dealing with such situations. We always strive to strike a balance between serving our technical community needs and ensuring safe participation. In the meantime, our online engagement activities* are geared at removing barriers to participation and continue to provide support to all communities. For the most part our technical topics are relevant across our region with only a limited number being country specific. Everything we do is to support an open, inclusive and engaged RIPE community. Best regards Hisham Ibrahim Chief Community Officer RIPE NCC * I did my best to compile a short list of these online engagements hope these are useful: - E-learning: Study at your own pace online with the RIPE NCC Academy e-learning courses: https://academy.ripe.net/ - Webinars: Live online and interactive learning: https://learning.ripe.net/w/courses/cat-15-webinars/ - Open House: Connect with experts from the RIPE NCC and our wider network for a focused discussion on topics of interest to you: https://www.ripe.net/participate/meetings/open-house/previous-events - RIPE Labs: It's a place to showcase and test new tools and prototypes where experts share analyses and discuss topics relevant to the state of the Internet right now and where those new to the community can get the resources they need to find their way Into the conversation. https://labs.ripe.net/ - RIPE NCC Forum: You use this forum to ask about anything related to the RIPE NCC talk to other RIPE NCC members share your thoughts on technical developments ask for help and more! https://forum.ripe.net/ > On 3 Jul 2023, at 8:51 PM, Alexander Isavnin <isavnin(a)freemoscow.university> wrote: > > Dear Hisham! > > Thank you for the kind words to the ones, who contributed their time and effort to ENOG! > > Did i got right from your e-mail, that RIPE NCC is going to abandon it’s activities in Russia?

Sunsetting ENOG
by Hisham Ibrahim 06 Jul '23

06 Jul '23

Dear colleagues, ENOG (Eurasian Network Operators' Group) was established in June 2011 as a means to bring RIPE and the RIPE NCC closer to the local communities in Eurasia and to support Internet development in the region. Last year, we indefinitely postponed what would have been the 19th ENOG Meeting, slated to be held in Moscow. In the run up to that decision, we heard from many community members, first at a Birds of a Feather (BoF) session on the future of ENOG at ENOG 19 and subsequently during the BoF at RIPE 85 in Belgrade and on the ENOG Discuss mailing list. I then shared an email to the ENOG Discuss list, outlining the RIPE NCC’s view on the matter [1]. These dialogues highlighted the complexities involved in continuing engagement efforts through ENOG and we appreciate the community’s willingness to have difficult but much needed conversations. In light of these discussions, we believe it is time to dissolve ENOG as a RIPE NCC regional platform. It is in no one’s interest to continue to support a platform that can no longer serve its purpose or deliver meaningful outcomes. If, in the future, the community indicates that there is a constructive role for ENOG to play, we will be open to this discussion. In practical terms, this means that we will archive the ENOG website and sunset the mailing list as of 31 July 2023, after which it will be kept as a read-only site. ENOG Meetings have already ceased to take place, and we will not plan ENOG Meetings for the foreseeable future. We thank everyone who has contributed their time and effort towards ENOG over the past decade. The RIPE NCC remains as committed as ever to supporting the technical communities in our service region. Our focus going forward will be on more localised efforts, whether this is training, workshops, providing staff to speak at events or supporting NOGs.

Hi, all! I would like to believe that this "freeze" in RIPE NCC' activities in Russia is connected just with formal issues. And I want to believe that RIPE NCC will try to unite its members (and members of RIPE community) in different ways. BTW, as a co-host of linkmeup[1], I'm ready to provide slots in our podcast and our off-line meetup in Moscow[2] to discuss any technical topics relevant for ENOG meetings.
