[cooperation-wg] Fwd: Internet Technical Leaders Welcome IANA Globalization Progress

Dear colleagues, 

For those not on other RIPE mailing lists, significant announcements were made yesterday by the US government and the "I*" group of Internet technical organisations (including the RIPE NCC) regarding the oversight arrangements for the IANA functions. Details available via the URL below. 

I look forward to the RIPE community discussion of what these developments will mean for RIPE, the RIPE NCC and the RIR communities more broadly. 

Best regards,
Chris Buckridge
Senior External Relations Officer, RIPE NCC
