PGP Keysigning BOF @ Ripe36
by Mathias Körber 16 May '00

16 May '00

We will have a PGP keysigning event at the Ripe 36 meeting. Please see http://www.koerber.org/ripe36 for details. Yes: I have just installed GPG 1.01 and should be able to handle GPG keys. Mathias Koerber PS: As I have not managed to get a reading software going, I would like to plead for 2 or 3 additional 'readers' to help read the keys out loud. These would only be required if we get more than 30 keys or so. They should have clear diction and a loud voice. The event will be on Thursdat at 17:00 after the plenary, before the buses pick us up for dinner.

The 'it' domain shows the highest increase for April with approximately 320,000 hosts more than in March. Background information and more statistics are available at http://www.ripe.net/hostcount/ - Brief Notes on this Hostcount - The January data was again used for uk, due to problems with co.uk since then. - Credits - I would like to thank all people who help me to create the hostcount every month by running a local count: ad Joan Marc Lauga am Edgar D Danielyan at Gerhard Winkler be DNS-BE Registration Office ch Marcel Schneider cy Vasoula Papapetrou cz Jiri Orsag de Peter Koch dk Morten Christensen eg Network Operator es Susana Gayo.

ICANN at large membership
by mike.norris＠heanet.ie 28 Apr '00

28 Apr '00

__________________________________________________________________ ICANN - AT LARGE MEMBERSHIP INFORMATION TASK FORCE __________________________________________________________________ Hello I'm writing about the 'ICANN At Large membership' concept and to encourage you to participate. As you know, ICANN has been set up to take on the regulation of the addresses, names and numbers that underlie the operation of the Internet. These functions, previously administered by US agencies, are now taken up by the new body, which will have global representation, in keeping with its world-wide remit. You can find out more about ICANN, its history and its structure, at http://www.icann.org/general/abouticann.htm and at http://www.icann.org/general/fact-sheet.htm . In addition to its functional components to deal with addresses, names and protocols, ICANN has an At Large structure. This is open to **all** users of the Internet and will represent our views through the directors we elect to ICANN's board. See http://members.icann.org/about_at_large.htm for more about the At Large membership. The At Large membership is seen as key to the successful governance of the Internet as far as ICANN is concerned. It embodies the founding principles of openness and transparency in the truest possible sense, and empowers each and every one of us to play an active part in the development of the Internet. ICANN has set up a Membership Information Task Force (MITF), with volunteers in regional chapters working to build a strong and diverse membership. The first At Large elections are due to take place quite soon, concluding no later than 1st November 2000. The west Europe MITF task group has started to work in raising awareness of the importance of At Large membership and is making contact with groups like yours throughout the region. We ask all members of this list to help us in this exciting task by - registering as an At Large member of ICANN (if you have not done so already) and by - spreading the word to your friends, colleagues and clients. To register as an At Large member of ICANN, go to http://members.icann.org/join_now.htm Please note that neither ICANN nor the Task Force has any financial or private interest in this process; our sole purpose here is to promote democratic concepts for the Internet. Regards. Mike Norris (on behalf of the west Europe MITF group)

RIPE36 Meeting payments
by RIPE NCC Meeting Registration 27 Apr '00

27 Apr '00

Dear colleagues, I am writing to inform you that the RIPE NCC credit card machine used to process your payments for the RIPE meeting fee is temporarily out of order. Unfortunately, this means that we can not process any payments at the moment. Those of you who register and submit credit card details prior to the cut-off date (5 May 2000) will still receive the registration discount (50 EUR) even though your credit card may be charged at a later date. As usual, you will find your receipt in the envelope that each participant of the meeting receives upon registering at the registration desk. I apologise in advance for any inconvenience this may cause. Kind Regards, Bettina Schroder RIPE NCC
