First of all I want to thank Jim for his great work for this working group 
and his years commitment as a working group chair!

For the designation of a new working group co-chair I put my hat (again) 
into the ring.

I'm seriously concerned about the impact malicious IoT devices will have 
on the internet's infrastructure. My goal in the working group is defining 
best practices and standards about how can be best dealt with IoT devices 
pro-actively to keep the attacks that are already onging and will come to 
happen under control. Besides that I want to work on providing players 
from the IoT industry with better practices and - if possible - technical 
solutions while working with regulators to create better standards that 
help providing security and privacy.

Coming from a home gateway/personal router/CPE background (DD-WRT / 
OpenWRT) such devices are for me potential gatekeepers that can play an 
important role in securing millions home small networks. Also ISP's should 
be brought on board, it's in their sole interest as well. To have an 
effect we need to try to gain a maximum traction in the industry.

There are already activities (SPIN / IETF home gateway WG, etc.) in this 
field. As a working group chair I would focus working on connecting the 
ongoing activities to form technical standards and reference 
implementations for easy adoption by the industry. I would also work on 
advocating those to industry players (i.e. via Broadband Forum & prpl 
Foundation) to get broader support for these activities as well. In my 
role as project manager for the open source projects in the prpl 
Foundation I also work on selecting security related technologies for 
adoption / funding by the prpl Foundation and it's members.

Being a RIPE member since years and becoming more and more familiar with 
the works of standardization organizations I am eager to learn more about 
the proceedings and how to better support the RIPE-community and other 
standardization organizations.

It would be my pleasure to work closer with all of you for the better of 
the internet.

Sincerly,
Peter

My term as WG co-chair ends at RIPE80 or theresabouts. I will not be 
standing for another term. First of all, bringing in new and hopefully 
younger faces to freshen things up is long overdue. Second, I only 
volunteered to bootstrap the new WG. That has been completed. So it’s time 
to step away and let the WG find somebody else.

There’s some info on WG co-chair responsibilities in RIPE692. Anyone 
interested in applying who wants more advice on what the job entails, 
likely time commitments and so on is welcome to contact Sandoche or 
myself. Or any other recent/current WG co-chair for that matter.

I would also ask potential candidates to start a *new thread* -- eg "Your 
name for co-chair" or something like that -- when they post on the list so 
there are meaningful and relevant Subject: headers which make it easier to 
make a consensus judgement. It’ll save the current co-chairs reading every 
message on the mailing list to decide if they contain something in favour 
or against a particular candidate. This will also make it clearer for 
other members of the list to express their support (or not) for a 
candidate.

Anyone can volunteer to become a co-chair and you can even nominate 
yourself. There’s no requirement to have N people nominating a candidate 
for them be considered for selection (for values of N > 1).

Ideally, it would be good to be able to announce the new co-chair at 
RIPE80. Though that could be too short notice since the meeting’s just 
under 4 weeks away. If you think more time is needed to decide, please 
speak up. There’s no firm deadline and we should take our time about 
making this appointment - provided of course the new co-chair is in place 
in plenty of time for RIPE81. Although I think 4 weeks (ish) should be 
long enough to find a new co-chair, this is for the WG to decide too.
