RIPE Region Hostcount for February 1999
by RIPE Hostcount Maintainer 06 Mar '99

06 Mar '99

Dear All, below is the hostcount for February 1999. The table shows a (tiny!) increase since last month of over 8,000 (or 0,1%) to a total of around 8,200,000 hosts in the DNS in Europe and surrounding areas. The uk domain shows the highest increase for February with approximately 44,500 hosts more than in January. - Brief Notes on this Hostcount - The increase this month is so small because the situation in fr has again changed dramatically. We estimate that the several huge zones which were newly included last month were not countable this month, resulting in the loss of around 160,000 hosts. - Other Ways to Obtain the Hostcount - All this data can also be found at http://www.ripe.net/statistics/hostcount/ The translation of the country codes can be found at ftp://ftp.ripe.net/iso3166-countrycodes - Credits - I would like to thank all people who help me to create the hostcount every month by counting hosts locally: ad Joan Marc Lauga at Gerhard Winkler be DNS-BE Registration Office ch Marcel Schneider cy Vasoula Papapetrou cz Jiri Orsag de Peter Koch dk Morten Christensen es Susana Gayo.

Looking for sites interested in hosting a test-box
by Henk Uijterwaal (RIPE-NCC) 01 Mar '99

01 Mar '99

Dear colleagues, The Test-Traffic Project group is pleased to announce that 20 new test-boxes have been delivered, tested and are ready to be installed at topologically interesting places around Europe. These test-boxes measure the delays on the network by sending time-stamped packets to each other. More information about the Test-Traffic Project can be found on the home-page of the Test-Traffic Project at http://www.ripe.net/test-traffic. If you are interested in hosting a test-box, please start by reading the RIPE documents 168 (version 2.1, February 1999) and 179, which should contain everything that you need to know about hosting a test-box at your site. Both documents are available from the Test Traffic project home-page. If your site can meet all requirements, please fill out the application sheet at http://www.ripe.net/test-traffic/Host_testbox. If anything is unclear or if your site is interested in hosting a test-box but cannot meet all requirements, do not hesitate to contact us. Sites that have already expressed interest in hosting a box will be contacted in a separate mail. It is our goal to distribute the test-boxes amongst topologically interesting places, while at the same time keeping the location of the test-boxes manageable from an operational point of view. Also note that the number of test-boxes is limited. This means that we may decide that we will not install a test-box at your site even though you applied for one. There is no deadline for applying. We plan to review all applications in the week after the IETF (March 19) and let the interested sites know which sites will receive a test-box. Installation of the boxes will start in the first week of April. We will continue to accept applications until all test-boxes have been installed.

Announcement: RIPE NCC General Manager
by Keith Mitchell 24 Feb '99

24 Feb '99

Dear RIPE NCC Members, It is with great regret that the RIPE NCC Executive Board announces the resignation of Daniel Karrenberg as General Manager of the RIPE NCC effective no later than July 1999. Daniel's motivation to end his responsibilities as General Manager of the RIPE NCC is personal and family related. Daniel wishes to spend more quality time with his family and his wife looks forward to the opportunity of resuming her professional career. The executive Board fully understands and accepts the reasons behind Daniel's decision to vacate his function. The Board will shortly be advertising the position and contracting a professional recruitment organisation to help with the administrative side of finding a suitable replacement. This process is in keeping with the openness and neutrality in which the RIPE NCC operates. The new manager will be selected by the RIPE NCC Executive Board, as the RIPE NCC statutes stipulate. We hope to announce a decision before May. Daniel's absolute commitment to the success of the RIPE NCC over the past seven years is sincerely appreciated by the Board. The Board welcomes his willingness to stay with the RIPE NCC to work on new projects and services. We will work both with him and the new management to define a suitable arrangement. Regards, Keith Mitchell RIPE NCC Chairman

Dear All, below is the hostcount for January 1999. The table shows an increase since last month of around 330,000 hosts (or 4,2%) to a total of almost exactly 8,200,000 hosts in the DNS in Europe and surrounding areas. The fr domain shows the highest increase for January with approximately 112,000 hosts more than in December. - More Information - More detailed information on the hostcount can be found at http://www.ripe.net/statistics/hostcount/ The translation of the country codes can be found at ftp://ftp.ripe.net/iso3166-countrycodes - Brief Notes on this Hostcount - The increase for fr is quite noteworthy. Most of the new hosts come from the 84 zones with 1000+ hosts. The subtraction of 1 host in one of the subtotals lines at the end of the table comes from the ly TLD, for which transfers were restricted this month. ly contributed a single host last month. Other TLD's from the RIPE Region which were not included, usually due to zone transfer problems at the top level: eh et gm kw sd so st tg - Credits - I would like to thank all people who help me to create the hostcount every month by counting hosts locally: ad Joan Marc Lauga at Gerhard Winkler be DNS-BE Registration Office ch Marcel Schneider cy vasoula(a)ucy.ac.cy cz Jiri Orsag de Peter Koch dk Morten Christensen es Susana Gayo.

30 Jan '99

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE ISPF -- Three days of clues, news, and views from the ISP industry's best and brightest. Press Contact: Deborah Howard, Executive Director (310) 827-8466, <deb.howard(a)ispc.org> The Internet Service Provider's Consortium (ISP/C) is pleased to announce that the second Internet Service Provider's Forum (ISPF) will be held from March 8 to 10, 1999 at the Town and Country Inn in San Diego. Dave Baker, Vice President, Legal And Regulatory Affairs, MindSpring Enterprises, Inc., will be the keynote speaker. Mr. Baker's keynote, titled "Open Access Should Not Be A Pipe Dream", will address the problems facing ISPs who seek to offer customers high-bandwidth access. As the race to construct broadband connections intensifies, Baker will present a carefully reasoned and compelling keynote argument for enforcing open systems. The speaker roster for ISPF 2 currently includes Internet notables such as Paul Vixie, Doug Humphrey, John Curran and many more industry figures. Pre-conference workshops include Avi Freedman (Netaxs) on BGP, Patrick Gilmore (Pacific Gateway Exchange) on IGPs, Jason Zigmont (Critical Path) on sales and marketing, and a first of its kind, a free, all-day Spam Panel sponsored by Critical Path. Other ISPF scheduled events include three days of educational sessions, panel discussions, and round-table meetings, a vendor exhibit hall and presentations as well as two days of intensive pre-conference training sessions. "Our sessions will be organized into specific tracks to help ISPs make most efficient use of their time," ISPF Conference Chair Jason Simonds says. "We have a dynamic mix of hand-on workshops, interactive discussions, and educational sessions planned that will benefit ISPs of all sizes. And everything will take place under one roof, which we feel is the most efficient setup for attendees and vendors alike." ISPF 2 has already confirmed AboveNet Communications, CacheFlow, ChooseYourMail.com, Critical Path, Fort NOCs, GigaNews.Com, IBeam, Internet Finance & Equipment, SkyCache, Solunet, Starcom, Texas.Net and many more as participating vendors.

ICANN Mailing List
by Jay Fenello 27 Jan '99

27 Jan '99

Hello Esther, As we approach the public comment period on the various proposals expected by ICANN, the Internet community is left without a mailing list of record -- the IFWP list is dead! This is unacceptable!!! To accommodate the discussions surrounding the PSO, ASO, DNSO, and MAC proposals, I humbly suggest that ICANN host a generic policy list ASAP. At the very least, ICANN should designate a single external list as the list of record. I suspect that ORSC and others would be happy to host such a list, and could have one operational within 24 hours. This needs to be addressed quickly. To do otherwise is inconsistent with the open process requirements of the White Paper. Respectfully, Jay Fenello President, Iperdome, Inc. 404-943-0524 http://www.iperdome.com
