That's the point; this list would be the one canonical place to learn
about those services. Of course, this list could be included in
existing publications, this may even be preferable. This proposal
lists requirements only, RIPE NCC is welcome to implement them as they
see fit.

That is great to hear. From your board POV, do you think it would make
sense to still codify the requirement even if you decide to produce
this list anyway?

does not go away and will always fulfill a certain minimum.

I proposed yearly, not monthly, reports.


Thanks,

PS: FYI, I am planning to write new versions of all five proposals
towards the end of the week to allow for more feedback.
