Furio, I should say that I find the posts with explicit information extremely useful as well, along with the presentations we've had at meetings with similar content. My comments on the recent email should *not* be taken to suggest that I do not believe such content is suitable for the WG. I absolutely do thing it is suitable. I do not class the post to which I objected as that kind of material. I think your other comments are definitely food for thought. Thank you, Brian Co-Chair, RIPE AA-WG Brian Nisbet Service Operations Manager HEAnet CLG, Ireland's National Education and Research Network 1st Floor, 5 George's Dock, IFSC, Dublin D01 X8N7, Ireland +35316609040 brian.nisbet at heanet.ie www.heanet.ie Registered in Ireland, No. 275301.

Do not click on links or open the attachments unless you recognise the sender and know the content is safe. Good morning, as everybody is certainly aware, the antiabuse scenario has become rather complex, so possibly one of the weak points of this group may be its rather wide charter [https://eur02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ripe.net%2Fparticipate%2Fripe%2Fwg%2Fanti-abuse&data=02%7C01%7Cbrian.nisbet%40heanet.ie%7Cce734e8edeed4a9d5e2e08d7e2bad1cc%7Ccd9e8269dfb648e082538b7baf8d3391%7C0%7C1%7C637227164321285662&sdata=rLTAy7RTthQkMx7sQQmWdCV5YBPEjnwQ576PNbdOJxs%3D&reserved=0]. With specialized discussions on various other abuse-related topics happening on many different fora around, it is however natural to continue considering this as the central and reference forum for all aspects related with one single important issue: network assets in the RIPE NCC region (IPv4 ranges and ASNs) used in a *dedicated* way by criminals or abusers (that is, excluding abuse from customers of real ISPs about which nothing can be done here besides chatting). These groups are very hungry for "clean" ranges, "bulletproof" ranges, "new" ranges in a scenario where IPv4 costs are raising to the stars - with all this implies in terms, for instance, of corruption as we have seen in the recent AFRINIC case. So, I admit that I am here almost exclusively for informations and discussions about RIPE NCC resources in the hands of criminals, and in this sense I found the information supplied by Ron to be extremely valuable, even if this may not be the best place to have a discussion about it and even if his reference to the position in the list of candidates was probably an unfortunate oversight - but from previous discussions there was no doubt about the identity of the questionable candidate. I would be favorable to either a focusing of the group charter on RIPE NCC resources dedicated to abuse, or to a new workgroup specifically targeting this aspect -- even if the presence of abusers themselves and their facilitators in open groups would limit strongly what the group could achieve operationally.
