I apologise for what might appear like duplication but I have been informed (thanks to those that told me) that this mail was not sent out in a readable form this afternoon. Therefore to ensure that everybody has a readable version here is this afternoon's mail once more. Dear contributors, As stated in the mail from karel Vietsch, dated 01 September 1997, the received nominations of people to serve on the for the RNA Executive Board will be published on the 8th, 15th, and 22nd of September. In accordance with this these are the nominations received as of 15th September: ----------------------------------------------------- Name: Frode Greisen Affiliation: Ebone A/S (Ebone Inc.) Function: Managing Director History of involvement with European Internet and RIPE NCC: ----------------------------------------------------------- Frode Greisen is managing director of Ebone Inc. which provides a European IP backbone connecting 78 Internet Service Providers in 30 countries. He has worked with computers since 1963 and with computer networks since 1984. He is a member of the Board of Trustees of the Internet Society since 1992 and served as its treasurer until he was elected chairman of the Society in 1997. He was the president of the European Research and Education Network (EARN) from 1989 to 1995. EARN was an early supporter of the RIPE NCC and provided a substantial part of its funding until the present system with user payment was set up. At the merger between EARN and Reseaux Associee de la Recherche Europeenne (RARE) in October 1994 into the Trans-European Education and Research Networking Association (TERENA) he was elected president of TERENA and he served in that position until May 1995. Frode Greisen was born in 1940 and obtained his M.Sc. in electrical engineering in 1964 and a Ph.D. in solid state physics in 1968 from the Technical University of Denmark. He was at the Technical University of Denmark first as a research assistant and later as an assistant professor from 1964 to 1970, with IBM Denmark from 1971 to 1977 and with the Danish Computing Center for Research and Education from 1978 to 1996. He was acting part time as general manager for the Ebone consortium from 1992 to 1996 when the Ebone Association and the Ebone company were established and he joined the company as a full time employee in 1996. Position and goals regarding the RIPE NCC ----------------------------------------- The RIPE NCC should maintain its neutral position while continuing to provide high quality services to its users. It should be sensitive to user needs but only get involved with activities where the neutrality can be preserved and where it does not unduly compete with its users. The RIPE NCC should be involved in the world wide policies for IP number administration and make sure its user's interests are considered as this administration, including the IANA, is developing. # - # - # As of this date Frode Greisen is the still the only nomination. There is still plenty of time to nominate other candidates and for those that wish to do so I have appended the original mail and nomination template for your use.

Hostcount for August 1997
by Mirjam Kuehne 05 Sep '97

05 Sep '97

Dear all, Here is the hostcount for August 1997. The table shows an increase since last month of almost 115,000 (or 2.4%) to a total of almost 5,000,000 hosts in the DNS in Europe and surrounding areas. The UK shows the highest increase for August with more than 23,000 hosts more than in July. Quite a few zones show a decrease this time. In AT one of the large ISP's did not allow a zone transfer. We hope we can convince them to allow it again next month. FI showed a huge increase last month. Now they've lost more than 17,000 hosts. The hostcount can also be found under ftp://ftp.ripe.net/ripe/hostcount. The graphical version of the hostcount can be found at ftp://ftp.ripe.net/ripe/hostcount/RIPE-Hostcount-{Mo,Qu}.eps The translation of the country codes can be found at ftp://ftp.ripe.net/iso3166-countrycodes All this data can also be found at http://www.ripe.net/statistics/hostcount.html If you are intersted in the historic hostcount data, bunyip Information Services is hosting the complete set of data since 1994 under ftp://ftp.bunyip.com/pub/netstats/ripe I would like to thank all people who help me to create the hostcount every month by counting hosts locally: at Gerhard Winkler <winkler(a)cc.univie.ac.at> be Herman Moons <Herman.Moons(a)CS.kuleuven.ac.be> ch Marcel Schneider <hostmaster(a)nic.ch> cy Panagiotis Tzounakis <pj(a)ics.forth.gr> cz Jiri Orsag <Jiri.Orsag(a)eunet.cz> de Peter Koch <pk(a)TechFak.Uni-Bielefeld.DE> dk Robert Martin-Legene <robert(a)dknet.dk> es Jose Sanchez-Seco <jose.sanchez(a)rediris.es> fi Petri Ojala <ojala(a)eunet.fi> fr Annie Renard <Annie.Renard(a)inria.fr> gr Dimitris Zisiadis <zisiadis(a)forthnet.gr> hr Ivan Maric <Ivan.Maric(a)stribor.srce.hr> hu Gabor Kiss <kissg(a)sztaki.hu> ie Mike Norris <mnorris(a)dalkey.hea.ie> il Sason Levi <sason(a)NetVision.net.il> it Antonio_Blasco Bonito <bonito(a)nis.garr.it> no Havard Eidnes <Havard.Eidnes(a)runit.sintef.no> pl Mirek Luc <mirek(a)nask.pl> pt Armando Domingues <fccn(a)dns.pt> ru Andrey Dobrotsvetov <adbr(a)ripn.net> sk Ivan Lescak <Ivan.Lescak(a)Slovakia.EU.net> Lubos Elias <Lubos.Elias(a)uakom.sk> sm Antonio_Blasco Bonito <bonito(a)nis.garr.it> tr Yener Yigit <yener(a)knidos.cc.metu.edu.tr> uk Kevin Hoadley <K.Hoadley(a)nosc.ja.net> Robert Stone <robert(a)nosc.ja.net> If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.

RNA Executive Board Nominations / Election
by vietsch＠terena.nl 01 Sep '97

01 Sep '97

Dear RIPE NCC Contributors, As you are aware we are well under way preparing for the establishment of the new legal organisation for RIPE NCC which is currently dubbed RNA (RIPE NCC Association). RNA has been discussed for the last few months and is described in ripe-161. An important body within this organisation is the Executive Board (EB). The EB governs the RIPE NCC and is responsible to the members. It consists of 3-5 people. Anyone can serve on the EB except employees of RNA. We are now at a stage where we need to find the constituting EB. Normally the EB will be elected by the RNA members. Since there are no RNA members yet, the appropriate group to bootstrap this process is the RIPE NCC Contributors Committee. Therefore members for the constituting EB will be elected at the upcoming meeting of the Contributors Committee on September 23rd. There remains the problem to find a number of high quality candidates for the EB. *YOU* are one of those who have to help with this. Given that time is short the "three man group" who is tasked to help establishing RNA will drive this process. They are: Paul Ridley <Paul.Ridley(a)ripe.net> Karel Vietsch <Vietsch(a)terena.nl> Wim Vink <Wim.Vink(a)eu.net> The task of these people is to *collect* nominations and it is *not* to *select* them. They will publish all nominations received. If you would like to suggest or nominate someone suitable to serve on the EB, please send your nomination to <eb-nominations(a)ripe.net>. You may also direct any questions you may have to this address. Besides Paul Ridley, Karel Vietsch and Wim Vink also the following three persons are available to act as contact points for anyone with questions related to the EB elections: Rob Blokzijl <Rob.Blokzijl(a)nikhef.nl> Daniel Karrenberg <Daniel.Karrenberg(a)ripe.net> Kees Neggers <Kees.Neggers(a)surfnet.nl>. On Mondays 8th, 15th and 22nd of September the committee will publish on the Contributors Committee mailing list a complete list of nominations received so far. We hope that the list will then be used for discussion such that the meeting will be well prepared for the election and the opinions of those not able to attend the meeting itself can have an influence. We stress that while this is going on, e-mail discussion within the Contributors Committee is encouraged. Anyone not comfortable with the procedure above is completely free to use the list itself to nominate people. The purpose of the procedure is to ensure that the contributors committee can select from a sufficient number of high quality nominations on September 23rd, three weeks from now. Please help us with this Paul Ridley Karel Vietsch Wim Vink ---- In order for the contributors committee to have comparable information about nominees we suggest to provide information in a format similar to the one below: > Name: N.E.T.
