[ncc-services-wg] Re: IPv4 Exhaustion Announcement and Press Conference: Watch Live

Axel,

thanks for the heads-up. The recent allocation of the last two "regular" 
/8's to APNIC is obviously worth a press conference.

Still, could you please shed some more light on the 30min "ceremony"? As 
at least I have no real idea what this could be like: hand shakes? 
Exchange of certificates? ???

Thanks in advance,

	Carsten
