[ncc-announce] [news] RIPE Policy Proposals - October Update

Dear colleagues,

Here is our monthly overview of open policy proposals and their stage in 
the RIPE Policy Development Process (PDP). This is the first update 
since June, as there were no significant PDP developments in recent months.

If you wish to join the discussion about a particular proposal, please 
do so on the relevant working group mailing list.

The RIPE Forum provides an easy access to all working group mailing 
lists https://www.ripe.net/participate/mail/forum/

Proposals Open for Discussion:
2015-04, "RIPE Resource Transfer Policies"
2016-03, "Locking Down the Final /8 Policy"

Proposal Withdrawn:
2016-01, "Include Legacy Internet Resource Holders in the Abuse-c Policy"
2016-02, "Resource Authentication Key ( RAK ) code for third party 
authentication"

Proposal Overviews:

PROPOSAL: 2015-04, "RIPE Resource Transfer Policies"
OVERVIEW: Aims to create a single transfer policy with all relevant 
information on the transfer of Internet number resources, replacing text 
in several RIPE Policies. The proposal also introduces a 24-month 
holding period for IPv4 addresses and 16-bit ASNs after any change of 
holdership.
RIPE NCC IMPACT ANALYSIS: Describes how the 24-month holding period for 
scarce resources will be applied.
STATUS: Review Phase
DEADLINE: 26 October 2016
FULL PROPOSAL: https://www.ripe.net/participate/policies/proposals/2015-04

PROPOSAL: 2016-03, "Locking Down the Final /8 Policy"
OVERVIEW: The third version aims to ban transfers of allocations made 
under the final /8 policy. The proposal also defines which IPv4 
resources will be added to the RIPE NCC’s available IPv4 pool.
STATUS: Review Phase
RIPE NCC IMPACT ANALYSIS: Describes how the transfer restrictions will 
be applied.
WHERE TO COMMENT: Address Policy Working Group: address-policy-wg at ripe.net
DEADLINE: 17 November 2016
FULL PROPOSAL: https://www.ripe.net/participate/policies/proposals/2016-03

=====

The following proposals have been withdrawn.

PROPOSAL: 2016-01, "Include Legacy Internet Resource Holders in the 
Abuse-c Policy"
OVERVIEW: Aimed for a mandatory abuse contact for Legacy Internet 
Resource Holders in the RIPE Database.
STATUS: Withdrawn. The proposers decided to withdraw the proposal due to 
the inability to find an acceptable agreement which satisfied all parties.
FULL PROPOSAL: https://www.ripe.net/participate/policies/proposals/2016-01

PROPOSAL: 2016-02, "Resource Authentication Key ( RAK ) code for third 
party authentication"
OVERVIEW: Aims to allow all number resources, in exacts and more specifics,
to be authenticated via an API-key that expires on a certain date.
STATUS: Withdrawn. The proposer didn't see enough community support, 
especially from the external database holders who would have needed to 
perform their own development work.

During the upcoming RIPE Meeting, the Address Policy Working Group will 
hold two sessions where ongoing and possible future policy proposals 
will be discussed. If you can’t attend the RIPE Meeting in person, we 
invite you to join remotely. A live webcast and IRC chat facility will 
be available for remote participation.

The two sessions will begin on 26 October at 8:00 and 10:00 (UTC).

Remote participation will be available at:

We look forward to your involvement in the PDP.

Kind regards,

Marco Schmidt
