Below is the list of action items from the RIPE meeting (and previously). The actions are grouped into two different categories: "Done" and "Open". If you are on the list with an action against your name, would you please reply confirming the status of that action : ie. whether it has been "Done" (hopefully) or whether it is still "Open", with an expected approx date for completion, if possible. This list is in response to a number of requests from people for more support and continuity of work items between meetings. It is the second reminder to be sent out and it will be sent to the list once a month - the next list will be generated April 16th - one month from the next RIPE meeting. I hope it helps!
