[ncc-services-wg] Should we have a RIPE archivist?

Hi,

> That said, there might be some value in capturing documents and memories from the early days. [Wasn’t there some sort of history project launched a few years ago?] Many of the Old Farts will be retiring soon. Some already have. And a few, sadly, are no longer alive. It would be useful to gather that information before it’s lost or forgotten forever. I’m not sure how to best go about doing that. A full time(?) archivist on a permanent or indefinite contract seems wrong though.

Would you be happier to give the NCC the task "making sure documents and memories from both current and past RIPE activities are properly archived" and leave the implementation details to them? I personally think having a dedicated person for this is an acceptable solution, but I see other do not. And maybe specifying roles instead of tasks is too much micro-management anyway :)

Cheers,
Sander
