by Adiel A. AKPLOGAN 14 May '04

14 May '04

Dear WG, I would like to make a last call for consensus on the proposal to modify the IPv4 allocation policy in the African portion of the RIPE NCC service region. The detailed proposal was posted to this list on 18 January and can be found at: http://www.ripe.net/ripe/mail-archives/address-policy-wg/2004/msg00123.html It was also discussed at RIPE 47 later in January. A copy of the presentation made to the Address Policy WG can be found at: http://www.ripe.net/ripe/meetings/ripe-47/presentations/ripe47-ap-afrinic-p… and minutes of the discussion that took place can be found at: http://www.ripe.net/ripe/wg/address-policy/r47-minutes.html (See section E). If there are no major objections to the policy proposal We would like to see the policy implemented as soon as possible. _______________________________________________________________________ Adiel A.

A new draft requesting expansion of RFC 1918 space by adding 3 /8s to space reserved for private use. Given the presented justification (see introduction): "Given the policies for acquiring additional public space it is not reasonable for them to acquire such space for use in their private networks. " I am left a bit confused about the statement and would like to have the wg request the RIPE NCC to ask the author for further clarification Regards, Joao Damas
