IoT WG Survey
by Constanze Dietrich 11 Jan '21

11 Jan '21

Hi and happy new year everyone! I suspect whoever can afford it is, by now, in some kind of hibernation pre-stage waiting for the madness to be over (Wise choice!). That said, we (co-chairs of the Internet of Things Working Group) want to kick off 2021 by collecting some qualitative input from the RIPE community -- as to what IoT-related topics we should look into, what you'd like to see on the mailing list and during the sessions, who we may collaborate with, where we might contribute... So if you could spare a few minutes to fill in our survey -- that would be great! ;) Survey: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdVVq38C96Mn_Lv8eDgiHGzt3TgzPfx_MM… Note: While we use the survey as a tool to collect feedback beyond the bounds of any mailing list, we intend to publish and discuss the results on the IoT WG mailing list. Cheers and kind regards Constanze Dietrich & Sandoche Balakrichenan

by Boris Duval 05 Jan '21

05 Jan '21

This message is sent on behalf of the Number Resource Organization (NRO). *** The ASO[1] is one of ICANN’s three Supporting Organizations. They review and develop recommendations on Internet Protocol (IP) address policy and advise the ICANN Board on policy issues relating to the operation, assignment, and management of IP addresses. The ASO Address Council (ASO AC)[2] hold monthly teleconferences, usually on the first Wednesday of each month, with exceptions to avoid clashes with Regional Internet Registry meetings and other meetings relevant to the Internet Numbers Community. Likewise, the IANA Review Committee (IANA RC)[3] advises the NRO EC in its annual review of the service level of the IANA Numbering Services provided to the Regional Internet Registries. The IANA RC hold three or four teleconference meetings each year, on dates agreed by the members to prepare their annual report. The dates for the 2021 meetings of both groups are currently being updated and are available at the following links: ASO AC Meeting Schedule: https://aso.icann.org/aso-ac/meetings/aso-ac-meeting-schedule/ IANA RC Meetings Schedule: https://www.nro.net/accountability/operational/iana-numbering-services-revi… Both the ASO AC and the IANA RC meetings are open to observers.

Update on the RIPE Code of Conduct TF
by Leo Vegoda 21 Dec '20

21 Dec '20

Dear RIPE Community, We last gave an update on our progress in October: - https://www.ripe.net/ripe/mail/archives/ripe-list/2020-October/001978.html As a reminder: the Code of Conduct TF was established after a call for volunteers in September and we have been meeting every two weeks. We are chartered to produce three documents: 1. A Code of Conduct (CoC) for all RIPE activities 2. A process for selecting a CoC Team 3. Reporting and operational procedures for the CoC Team In our October update, we said that we intended to publish an updated draft CoC in November (with the remaining two documents to come later). While we are almost ready to publish our draft, we needed time to review the recent GM vote to apply the RIPE CoC to Executive Board elections. We wanted to consider whether this would place additional burdens on the yet-to-be-formed CoC Team. We have now established that while the RIPE NCC Executive Board might decide to use the RIPE CoC for its elections, this would be a separate implementation from the community's. We now expect that we will be ready to publish an updated draft RIPE Code of Conduct on this list in January. Based on the community's feedback, the TF will then evaluate whether further updates are needed, or if we can ask the RIPE Chair Team to determine whether there is consensus on the document. We thank you for your patience and wish you all a happy end to 2020 and a successful 2021. Best wishes, Leo Vegoda For the RIPE Code of Conduct TF

RIPE 82 will be a Virtual Meeting, 17-21 May 2021
by Mirjam Kuehne 15 Dec '20

15 Dec '20

Dear colleagues, We decided, together with the RIPE NCC, that RIPE 82 will take place as a virtual meeting from 17-21 May 2021. While we were looking forward to seeing you all in Berlin, we feel this is necessary to protect the health of all attendees and RIPE NCC staff. The situation around COVID-19 is still too uncertain and the risks appear too great to justify a physical meeting. We hope things will get better soon and that we will be able to meet in person for a physical RIPE 83. That being said, we received positive feedback about people’s virtual experience at RIPE 81 and we are already working behind the scenes to make RIPE 82 even better. For updates on the meeting, please keep an eye on this mailing list and the RIPE 82 website <https://ripe82.ripe.net>. You can also follow @ripemeeting on Twitter. Best regards, Mirjam Kühne, RIPE Chair Niall O’Reilly, RIPE Vice Chair

RIPE Database Requirements Task Force – Second Draft Published
by Kennedy, James 26 Nov '20

26 Nov '20

Dear colleagues, Many thanks to those who attended the BoF yesterday. To repeat our message, please take some time to read the second draft and feel very welcome to share your thoughts. - https://www.ripe.net/participate/ripe/tf/rdb-requirements-tf/the-ripe-datab… 1. In addition, we have noticed the most common RIPE database issues flagged by the community in both the 2019 RIPE NCC and the 2020 RDBTF surveys can be summarized into two interrelated categories: data accuracy, and ease-of-use. 2. Suggested solutions from the community have been to enforce validation and data checks, and upgrades to the user interface and search functionality. What do you think are the causes of these issues? Would you like our task force to address them and provide some form of guidance in our document? Best regards, James Kennedy
