Is there any video recording of the random selection process going to be performed or just the proceedings are expected?
I'm sure we can video it if you want...
Surely we should be using a process similar to the IETF NomCom: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3797 All we need are sources of randomness. The IETF used these most recently: https://datatracker.ietf.org/nomcom/ann/85656/ Perhaps we could use entries meaningful to the RIPE database as seeds, using some agreed-upon day in the future as to when we get the values. * Number of RIPE Database objects in this file: ftp://ftp.ripe.net/ripe/dbase/ripe.db.gz * Average number of RIPE database queries on the 5 minutes average on this page: https://www.ripe.net/analyse/statistics/ripe-database/ripedb-queries * And maybe something like the "Number of addresses announced to the Internet" from this report: http://thyme.rand.apnic.net/london/data-summary Just a thought. ;) -- Shane
