I fully agree and this is one of the problems I see by introducing carrier E**M via a backdoor in e164.arpa. If I am a carrier, especially a carrier acting on an international basis, I want to implement routing mechanisms within my network and with other networks (peers) without having to go to a NRA begging first to opt-in in e164.arpa and second to behave according to various and different national rules. A carrier E**M implementation does not need a tier 0 and tier 1, and it is questionable if it needs a tier 2. It needs a centralisized database operated by someone, and who this is will be decided by the community as will be the other rules. This is exactly the reason why no silver tree will exist in the near future -richard ________________________________ Von: enum-wg-admin(a)ripe.net im Auftrag von Marco bernardi Gesendet: Mo 13.12.2004 08:38 An: Jim Reid; Stastny Richard; Richard Shockey Cc: Andrzej Bartosiewicz; Carsten Schiefner; enum-wg(a)ripe.net Betreff: Re: [enum-wg] COCOM & ENUM ...

This was exactly the reason why ETSI decided two years ago in ETSI TS 102 051 "ENUM Administration in Europe" that there should be an alternative way to get ENUM delegations if your TSP will not do it. The possibility to port your number to a TSP providing ENUM was NOT considered a proper alternative. One does not need to be a fortune teller to anticipate this problem ;-) -richard ________________________________ Von: Andrzej Bartosiewicz [mailto:andrzejb@nask.pl] Gesendet: Mo 13.12.2004 10:53 An: Richard Shockey Cc: Conroy, Lawrence (SMTP); Jim Reid; Stastny Richard; Carsten Schiefner; enum-wg(a)ripe.net Betreff: Re: [enum-wg] COCOM & ENUM ...

>IMO the only potential problem with this is >that private data could be made public through the DNS. He Jim, not again this one. This is exactly the reason why ENUM is end-user opt-in. BTW, in some countries there exists already a database (in this case opt-out) where even the names and addresses of telephone subscribers are stored - it is called the "public phone directory" Of course, because of the opt-in/opt-out feature you may not use these directories for call routing -richard ________________________________ Von: Jim Reid [mailto:jim@rfc1035.com] Gesendet: So 12.12.2004 10:03 An: Stastny Richard Cc: Andrzej Bartosiewicz; Carsten Schiefner; enum-wg(a)ripe.net Betreff: Re: [enum-wg] COCOM & ENUM ... >>>>> "Richard" == Stastny Richard <Richard.Stastny(a)oefeg.at> writes: Richard> There is only one "minor" problem with the implementation Richard> in Poland: It is Carrier E**M in e164.arpa And the problem is......?

Question to the friends in Poland - does "Access to the production system" mean read access or write access or both ? My question was related to my assumption and initial understanding, that all access was restricted to polish TSPs, like in a Carrier-E**M System my understanding is that ALL ACCESS is limited to participating Carriers. I would definitely question compliance to EU regulation if ALL ACCESS (incl. READ access) was limited to polish TSPs.

Carsten, The answer is: Yes. We have switched over to production 6 months ago. You missed my presentation in Sophia Antipolis... :) Every TSP in Poland with assigned numbering block may sign the contract with NASK and start the registration of ENUM domain names in 8.4.e164.arpa (5 EURO/year). BTW: Access to the production system is restricted to the TSPs with officially assigned numering blocks by "Office of Telecommunications and Post Regulation" in Poland. We also have the "testing" system, so everybody (not only TSPs) can test the full functionality. The only difference is that we do not export domain names to zone file from the "testing" system.
