Fwd: Revision of IPv4 policy doc - proposed timeline

[Nurani Nimpuno <]

Dear colleagues,

Just a quick reminder that the first revision period of the IPv4 policy 
draft document, will end the coming Friday (25 January).
The document which will replace the current RIPE document:"European 
Internet Registry Policies and Procedures" (ripe-185) is available at:

http://www.ripe.net/rs/ipv4policy.html

We encourage you to revise this document and to send any comments you may 
have to the ripe-185bis@localhost mailing list.
Your input is essential, as this document describes all IPv4 policies to be 
implemented by the RIPE NCC and the LIRs in the RIPE NCC service region.

Mirjam Kuhne mir@localhost will be co-ordinating the revision process, 
should you have any specific questions regarding the policy draft document.

We look forward to your comments.
Regards,

Nurani Nimpuno
RIPE NCC

> Dear colleagues,
>
> We wish to draw your attention to the revision of the current IPv4 policy
> document and the first draft, posted on the web in August 2001:
>
> http://www.ripe.net/rs/ipv4policy.html
>
> A few comments were gathered after the publication of the draft, as
> summarised below:
>
> - ASN policy should be in a separate policy document.
> - Further clarification of the "Static assignments for services that are
> permanently connected to the Internet" possibly needed.
> - Clarification of policy on registration of End-User contact details in
> the RIPE db (with respect to privacy).
> - Re-wording (re-clarification) of the Reverse Delegation policy section.
>
> The public mailing list ripe-185bis@localhost was set up to facilitate
> the revision of this draft, but other than the comments listed above,
> there has been very little activity.
>
> The IPv4 policy draft has now been publicly available for comments for
> five months and I believe we are all keen to see a final version of this
> document out soon. We would therefore like to propose the following
> timeline to move forward with the publication of the new IPv4 policy
> document:
>
> 11-25 Jan   : 1st revision period (2 weeks)
>               - Public call for comments
> 25 Jan-7 Feb: Editing by the RIPE NCC (2 weeks)
>               Comments to be incorporated by the RIPE NCC
> 7 Feb       : 2nd draft to be published by the RIPE NCC
> 7 Feb-21 Feb: 2nd revision period  (2 weeks)
>               - Public call for comments
> 21-28 Feb   : Final editing by the RIPE NCC (1 week)
> 28 Feb      : Final version of the policy document to be published.
