by John DYER 15 Oct '96

15 Oct '96

Dear RIPE Members Apologies if you receive more than one copy of this mail. The following vacancy for a PDO is being advertised. I would appreciate you assistance in widely disseminating the information to anyone you think might be interested. Thank You John DYER * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY IN NETWORKING AT TERENA * * 7/10/96 * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * PROJECT DEVELOPMENT OFFICER (PDO) Trans-European Research and Education Networking Association (TERENA) The Organisation The Trans-European Research and Education Networking Association (TERENA) is a pan European organisation representing all major research networks of Europe. The primary objective of TERENA is the promotion and development of a high quality international information and telecommunications infrastructure to support European research and education. To meet this objective, TERENA has established a Technical Programme which is intended to encourage innovative and collaborative projects, encompassing involvement in the definition of standards, co-ordination with telecommunication operators, industry and governmental bodies. The majority of the work is undertaken by volunteer experts drawn from the TERENA community and organised into Working Groups and Task Forces for specific technical areas and activities. The working language of TERENA and its associated activities is English. The technical work of TERENA concerns the definition and management of leading edge networking projects including wide area ATM development, European Information Infrastructure, security and video conferencing. TERENA also organises a number of European networking conferences, workshops and symposia each year. The Post The TERENA technical staff consists of three Project Development Officers (PDOs) and a Chief Technical Officer who reports to the TERENA Secretary General. The staff work closely with the administrative staff making up a small international team of approximately twelve in the TERENA secretariat office in the centre of Amsterdam. Due to one of the current staff members taking up a position elsewhere, TERENA presently has a vacancy for a self motivated Project Development Officer. The PDO post will be for an initial one year period starting 1 January 1997, at the level of 40 hours per week (100%) in the TERENA Amsterdam office. TERENA offers a competitive package of salary and benefits which may include relocation expenses if appropriate. Duties Project Development Officers play an essential role in the development and co-ordination of the TERENA Technical Programme providing technical and administrative support to the TERENA Technical Committee, the Working Groups and Task Forces. Activities undertaken by the PDOs include participation in Working Group and Task Force meetings, writing of documentation including meeting minutes, overall project management and project co-ordination. Information dissemination through the World Wide Web, other on-line means and preparation of printed material are also important aspects of the PDOs work. There may also be the opportunity to make presentations on the work of TERENA at conferences and to participate in teaching sessions of training workshops. The management of technical projects is however a major component of the duties. The work will inevitably require some degree of travel. Qualifications Candidates should be educated to degree level and have a detailed understanding and experience of advanced computer networking. This should include a working knowledge of Internet and related standards preferably including an understanding of the international networking scene. An understanding of good project management practice from project definition, financial resourcing, definition and monitoring of milestones, through to completion and maintenance would be an advantage. A good knowledge of written and spoken English is essential. Willingness to travel on official business in Europe and possibly beyond is necessary. Further Information Further information on the technical aspects of the job may be obtained from John Dyer, TERENA Chief Technical Officer <dyer(a)terena.nl>. Applications Applications which must include the names and addresses of two confidential referees should be sent either electronically or in hardcopy to Ms Mina Jansse, TERENA Personnel and Organisation Officer <janssen(a)terena.nl>, before 1 November 1996. The intention is to hold interviews for short listed candidates in Amsterdam during the week commencing 18th November 1996. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Trans-European Research and Education Networking Association * * * * TERENA Tel : +31-20-639-1131 * * Singel 466-468 Fax : +31-20-639-3289 * * 1017 AW Amsterdam * * The Netherlands URL: http://www.terena.nl * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Hostcount for September 1996
by Mirjam Kuehne 04 Oct '96

04 Oct '96

Dear all, Here is the hostcount for September 1996. The table shows an increase since last month of over 170,000 (or 5.7%) to a total of almost 3,300,000 hosts in the DNS in Europe. Over the last quarter the number of hosts in Europe increased by +12.5%. The UK shows the highest increase for September with more than 45,000(!) hosts more than in August. DE still has the highest total amount of hosts registered. Last month I reported about a few zones that showed a significant decrease of hosts. At least for AT we found a reason: lack of disc space to hold the complete output file. The count was repeated beginning of September. The corrected data for AT can be found at ftp://ftp.ripe.net/ripe/hostcount/at.{output,error}.9608.gz The complete hostcount data can 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/ 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 Irek Neska <irek(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> If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.

Perhaps if you could mail the output to nanog and ripe-list the peer pressure would help and in some cases inform LIRS/ISPs what they may unknowingly be doing wrong. RIPE did this earlier inthe year for the European registries and it worked. Is there an APNIC equivelant ? It would also be a good idea IMHO if the Global registries (APNIC RIPE INTERNIC)had email lists, alongthe lines of the ones RIPE runs, which it encouraged new 'customers' to join. This may be the nearest we get to a global isp email list. Regards Tony
