That way you dont get accused of not keeping the info up-to-date and we keep control of the info:)
Lets use the technology how it was intended!
That is my current thinking about how we will go about keeping a list of European Internet service providers.
p.s. All service providers have www servers, dont they?
This is one of the problems to get it started. But not a serious one as we can just accept ASCII text or HTML and store it at the NCC during the startup phase.
What would be useful is if RIPE designed a sub-set of the service definitions draft RFC and sent that out as a questionaire and the published the collated results.
1. The NCC currently has no manpower to do anything like that. We are awfully short as it is. 2. I would like to avoid that and use your first idea exclusively as the service providers will be responsible for their presentations themselves. 3. If RIPE would come up with a suggested structure for the presentations or a list of the topics that should/can be covered it would be very useful.
