Julf and Achilleas, thank you both for your dedication, time, and insight as Co-Chairs of this working group for so many years. I had the pleasure of working closely with you both in the earlier years of your respective tenures, and I know and appreciate your commitment in these roles - the reward has been an essential space for the RIPE community to engage with the external policy issues that have come to loom so large over Internet operations. Needless to say, you'll both be missed! 

In saying that, I have no reservations whatsoever in endorsing both Bas and Peter - long-time WG members and each bringing highly relevant subject matter expertise - to step in as ongoing stewards of this working group. 

Best, 
Chris
