[mat-wg] Implementing new RIPE Atlas Service Terms and Conditions

Dear colleagues,

As agreed on this mailing list, we are in the process of implementing 
the new RIPE Atlas Service Terms and Conditions that clearly state the 
role and responsibilities for the RIPE NCC, RIPE Atlas hosts and users:
https://atlas.ripe.net/legal/terms-conditions/

This is the adjusted implementation plan:

- End of January, existing probe hosts will be notified by email about 
the upcoming transition to the new terms and conditions.

- From next week (during February), existing users and probe hosts will 
be presented with a banner when they log in to the RIPE Atlas website, 
to inform them of the upcoming transition.

- As of 2 March 2015, the new RIPE Atlas Service Terms and Conditions 
will come into effect; new probe hosts will be asked to agree to the new 
terms and conditions when applying for a probe; all existing probe hosts 
will be subject to the new terms and conditions.

Thank you for your feedback and for helping us to refine these new terms.

Regards,

Vesna Manojlovic
Measurements Community Building
RIPE NCC
