Short content description -------------------------
This memorandum is intended to focus discussion about the establishment of a Regional Internet Registry serving the CIS and surrounding areas. ***************************
Dear authors, before starting the live discussion about this document I would appreciate to get explanation regarding geografical region which be covered by this document (and by Registry repectively). In particular: 1. 2. 3. excerpt from RIPE-167: Background Since the start of the RIPE NCC as a regional Inter- net registry in April 1991 Russia and the other countries of the CIS (former USSR) have been served **************** by the RIPE NCC. To my knowledge these 3 statements are totaly not the same. Even more, CIS never had meaning adequate to USSR. Thanks and best regards, //Albertas ==================================================== Albertas Ramanauskas ph. +370 2 72 12 89 Manager, Taide NOC fax. +370 2 72 76 52 Liepyno 7, Vilnius mob. +370 99 3 56 01 Lithuania albertas@taide.lt http://www.taide.net ==================================================== P.S. Excerpt from RIPE-167: If has been suggested more than once that the coun- tries of the CIS in fact form a separate region from Europe that needed special regional support. IMHO this doesn't sound very gentle.
