[address-policy-wg] 2007-01 Implementation: Direct Internet Resource Assignments to End Users from the RIPE NCC

Hello,

Does this also mean IPv6 PI is possible from 3 March 2009? Because it is
possible to request it from that date if I read the e-mail correctly.

With kind regards,

Resource Assignments to End Users from the RIPE NCC

[Apologies for duplicate emails]

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to announce that phase one of policy proposal 2007-01, 
"Direct Internet Resource Assignments to End Users from the RIPE NCC", 
will be implemented on 3 March 2009.

This change will require that an End User have a contractual 
relationship with a sponsoring LIR or the RIPE NCC before the End User 
can receive Internet number resources (Autonomous System (AS) Number, 
Provider Independent (PI) IPv4 and IPv6, Internet Exchange Point (IXP) 
and anycasting assignments) directly from the RIPE NCC.

The full text of policy proposal 2007-01 can be found at:
http://www.ripe.net/ripe/policies/proposals/2007-01.html

Phase one addresses the implementation of the new policy in relation to 
all new requests for independent numbering resource assignments.

Please note that from 3 March 2009, End Users requesting independent 
numbering resources must sign a contract with a sponsoring LIR or with 
the RIPE NCC in order to receive those resources. Requests for 
independent numbering resources that do not demonstrate such a contract 
will not be processed by the RIPE NCC.

Information on the required content of contracts between End Users and 
sponsoring LIRs is available at:
http://www.ripe.net/membership/lir-end-user-requirements.html

Phase two of policy proposal 2007-01 will address the contractual 
relationship between End Users who hold previously assigned independent 
numbering resources and the RIPE NCC or a sponsoring LIR. A plan for 
implementation of this phase will be presented at the next meeting of 
the RIPE NCC Services Working Group, which will take place at the RIPE 
58 Meeting in Amsterdam from 4-8 May 2009.

Kind regards,

Andrea Cima
RIPE NCC
