I wanted to give you an update on their current state, as well as an overview of the direction we’d like to head in 2015. And of course, I’d like to hear your feedback about our proposed plans. You can find all the details on RIPE Labs: <a href="https://labs.ripe.net/Members/kranjbar/ripe-ncc-technical-services-update" class="">https://labs.ripe.net/Members/kranjbar/ripe-ncc-technical-services-update</a> I look forward to your comments and suggestions. Regards, Kaveh Ranjbar Chief Information Officer RIPE NCC</body></html>
