PDP Number: 2008-05 Anycasting Assignments for TLD's and Tier 0/1 ENUM While I strongly support the proposal for more than 1 anycast assignment per TLD/ENUM tier1 operator, I do have some problems with the definition of the ENUM tier1 operators. Where it says: "ENUM operators as defined by the ITU" I think it should say: "ENUM tier0/1 operators as defined by RIPE NCC" I wouldn't want the ITU to determine who should get address space, and the counterpart for IANA in the ENUM space is RIPE NCC. I see the ITU more in the role ICANN has with regards to TLD's, or perhaps even the US DOC.
