Dear colleagues, Consensus has been reached, and the proposal for a change to RIPE Document ripe-525, "Autonomous System (AS) Number Assignment Policies", has been accepted by the RIPE community. This policy change allows the transfer of Autonomous System (AS) numbers within the RIPE NCC service region. You can find the full proposal at: http://www.ripe.net/ripe/policies/proposals/2014-13 The new RIPE Document is called ripe-638 and is available at: https://www.ripe.net/ripe/docs/ripe-638 We estimate that this proposal will take about three months to fully implement. Details of the implementation status are available at: https://www.ripe.net/lir-services/resource-management/policy-implementation-... We will send another announcement once the implementation is complete and the new procedures are in place. Thank you to everyone who provided their input. Regards, Marco Schmidt Policy Development Officer RIPE NCC
