Dear BCOP "crowd" :)
We got the BCOP BoF accepted for RIPE67 in Athens, with a note that we
would like to have it on Monday after the "BCOP updates" lightning talk,
where I'll do a short update on the BCOP activities around the world and
some identified topics that came out of discussion on this mailing list
(and also some others).
I would like to announce with great pleasure, that Benno Overeinder from
NLNET Labs volunteered and made a step forward to help with BCOP
activity in RIPE community - so he'll do the ligtning talk with me and
co-run the BCOP BoF in Athens.
We have a small web page with some information about BCOPs around the world:
http://www.internetsociety.org/deploy360/about/bcop/
...and a list of some identified topics:
http://www.internetsociety.org/deploy360/about/bcop/topics/
Now we need to start drafting some of this documents. Pick the topic and
draft a "table of content", send it to the list and ask for co-authors.
Anyone?
I'll start the draft titled "Basic IPv6 troubleshooting for helpdesks
around the world" document, that would bring the ISPs a simple template
with some generic information that their helpdesk should know about when
they put IPv6 in production. Document should be really just a start with
"add-your-own-specifics" in mind.
I think this should remove the next speedbump in IPv6 deployment, I have
the same feeling like I had when I started a document, that later became
RIPE-501 and RIPE-554.
Would anyone like to help me with this?
I would also like to suggest that we have some short presentations of
ideas of BCOP documents in Athens - but we need to start doing something
prior to that - and we have less than 2 months to do something.
Cheers, Jan Zorz
