RIPE atlas measurements are growing much faster than ripe probe / anchor deployment. In addition, some of the older deployed probe stock is decaying. Is the capex allocation of €130k enough expenditure as part of the long term funding plan for Atlas to ensure that the current rate of increase of measurements can be sustained in the long term? 2. IT security: presumably this encompasses RPKI TA and hosted CA security management too? 3. RIPE Chair Team: the allocation of €205k for Chair, Vice Chair and travel + subsistence looks surprisingly low given that the average personnel cost per FTE is listed as €102k. Separately, the board committed to ensuring independence of the RIPE Chair Team from the NCC. Can you provide information on how this independence will be maintained, and also reassurance that the RIPE Chair Team remuneration package has been designed or at least reviewed by an independent third party to ensure that it's appropriate for the positions? 4. Software development: there's been some discussion about the RPKI validator. One issue that hasn't been touched on is the RIPE NCC's general involvement with software development where there are other third party packages available on a commercial or commercially-supported basis. This is an issue that was raised before (many years ago), specifically in the context of development of DNS software. Can you provide some info on what the RIPE NCC's governing policies are in this area? 5. E-voting: as there are no alternatives in the short-term future, has the RIPE NCC confirmed that the E-voting platform will be fully GDPR compliant for the upcoming GM and also on Jan 1, 2021? I.e both in terms of potential brexit outcomes and also in terms of transatlantic data transfer following the Schrems 2 ruling. Nick
