some suggestions on "work items" for the WG
by Jim Reid 16 Feb '18

16 Feb '18

Here are a few random thoughts about the sorts of things the WG might do. I hope these will spark some discussion. Please note I’m not saying the WG will or won’t adopt any of these suggestions. Or that these are the only topics of interest. This is just an attempt to get everyone to think about the WG’s activities and come forward with their own suggestions. 1) Interaction with SDOs and industry fora How could/should the WG engage with these? Do we want updates from (say) AIOTI, IETF, ETSI and so on? Are any members of the WG involved in the IoT work at these sorts of organisations? 2) Liaison with government/regulators What is and isn’t appropriate here? 3) Advice/support to the NCC The NCC gets asked about IoT. They are going to want the WG to provide advice or present the consensus view (if any) of the RIPE community. 4) Academia We had a few IoT themed presentations at RIPE75 from academics. Does the WG want more (or less) of that sort of thing? What’s the best way to collaborate with academia and what does the WG want to get from that? 5) Training & Documentation Should the WG try to develop training materials/tutorials on IoT, white papers, use cases, best practices and so on? [Probably yes.] If so, what should these focus on and are there any volunteers to help produce these? 6) IP(v6) Addressing Issues What are the main issues around IP(v6) addressing/subnetting schemes for IoT devices and networks? 7) Security Anyone interested in the security aspects of IoT, both in terms of the edge devices and their potential role in DDoS attacks like Mirai? Could the WG develop some recommendations or advice? 8) Policy Making What sort of policies (and on what) could the WG develop for the NCC to implement? 9) Tools and toys Does anyone have new/interesting tools for playing with IoT devices or have useful development environments for them, say for writing/debugging code on a Raspbery Pi or even cheaper chipsets? 10) Anything else? Er.... Let’s hear what you all have to say about the above. Or other things I’ve either overlooked or forgotten about. Over to you...

next steps for the new WG
by Jim Reid 29 Nov '17

29 Nov '17

There are a few things which need to be sorted out in the coming months and will have to be discussed on the list. I’ll start separate threads for each of them. 1) Getting consensus on a co-chair selection/removal process 2) Deciding how many co-chairs and running the selection process to appoint them 3) Agreeing what things (excuse the pun!) the WG should do: ie what do we mean by “exchanging information about IoT”?

The IoT WG Charter
by Jim Reid 29 Nov '17

29 Nov '17

In case anyone’s not noticed, the IoT WG was created at RIPE75. Those who were on the (now closed down) iot-discussion mailing list have been migrated to the WG’s list iot-wg(a)ripe.net. There’s also a home page for the new WG: https://www.ripe.net/participate/ripe/wg/iot. Many thanks to Marco and his colleagues at the NCC for taking care of that. There was a little bit of wordsmithing on the proposed charter in Dubai. Here’s the text that got consensus in the IoT plenary. • To discuss challenges and opportunities of "IoT” for the RIPE community • To serve as a focal point for the RIPE NCC regarding community input to their IoT activities, including liaisons with other organisations • To invite IoT communities for a dialogue on matters of operational relevance, including security, the numbering system, and applicability of standards • To develop positions of the RIPE community on IoT matters Thanks to everyone who contributed to this text.

Welcome to the IoT Working Group Mailing List
by Marco Hogewoning 09 Nov '17

09 Nov '17

Dear Colleagues, As you are reading this email, we have successfully completed renaming the IoT Discussion list to iot-wg(a)ripe.net as announced yesterday. Your subscription has been automatically transferred from the old list, including all of its settings. Should you wish to change your settings or unsubscribe from this mailing list, you can do so via the administrative interface at: https://lists.ripe.net/mailman/listinfo/iot-wg This list now serves as the mailing list for the RIPE Internet of Things Working Group, which was established during the RIPE 75 meeting in Dubai. To provide some historic context, the archives of the IoT-Discussion list have also been migrated and are now available under the archive section of this mailing list. Over the next few days we will update www.ripe.net with more information on the IoT Working Group and finalise this migration by making sure all links and pointers are now referring to this new list. Please be reminded that any replies to previous mails should now be directed to the new address: iot-wg(a)ripe.net and that in line with the name change, message subject lines will now be tagged "[iot-wg]”, please make sure to update any filters that make use of this tag. Regards, Marco Hogewoning -- External Relations - RIPE NCC

Fwd: IoT interoperability Testing: Funding opportunities with F-Interop second open call
by Marco Hogewoning 08 Nov '17

08 Nov '17

Dear colleagues, As I received this call via another list, it might of interest to people on this list as well. While pretty much everybody agrees that interoperability is a key feature for the IoT, making sure these test platforms deliver to our expectations I think is equally important. Please see below, essentially looking for parties to test the f-interop testing platform, which itself is part of an EU funded project. Groet, MarcoH -- Sent from a small touch screen, apologies for typos Begin forwarded message: > Dear All, > I am writing you on behalf of the consortium for F-Interop, a H2020 project researching and developing online interoperability and performance test tools supporting emerging IoT-related technologies from standardisation to market (http://www.f-interop.eu). > > So far F-Interop has built a platform for testing interoperability of IoT protocols and we have integrated tools for remote conformance and interoperability testing of 6TiSCH, CoAP and OneM2M. > > We are now running an Open Call for third parties to test the current platform from a final user perspective, and to increase its adoption and exploitation by SMEs, developer communities, and standards development organisations. > > We aim to select 10 successful third parties to test the platform, and 2 additional entities to run remote plugtest events, receiving €10k each. The call is open until December 20th, with more information on the project and Open Call here, and in the call announcement attached. > > The application process is very lightweight. > > Hoping that this might be of interest for you or your communities, we will be glad if you could disseminate this opportunities further through your channels and we are also happy to provide you or your contacts more details about the F-Interop project and the application process so you can understand how to develop successful proposal. > > In that case, please do get in touch with me or Marie in cc. > > You can also use the following tweet for fast dissemination: > #funding opportunities for #SMEs working on #iot #interoperability with the @finterop project #H2020 #opencalls http://www.f-interop.eu/index.php/open-call > > Looking forward to hear from you. > > Thanks a lot in advance for your help and interest. > > Kind Regards, > Michele Nati, PhD > Lead Technologist Personal Data and Trust > +44 (0)7909189428, +44 (0)2037356146 > https://uk.linkedin.com/in/michelenati > @michelenati

[iot-discussion] Subject: Mailing list name change: iot-wg@ripe.net
by Marco Hogewoning 06 Nov '17

06 Nov '17

Dear colleagues, Following the establishment of the RIPE IoT Working Group during the RIPE 75 meeting in Dubai, we are planning to change the name of this mailing list to iot-wg(a)ripe.net. If you wish to remain subscribed to this list, no action is required. On Tuesday, 7 November 2017, we will discontinue the current iot-discussion mailing list and transfer your subscription and settings to the new RIPE IoT Working Group list: iot-wg(a)ripe.net. From that point onwards, please send any emails to iot-wg(a)ripe.net, as the current address will no longer be functional. If you no longer wish to participate in the discussion, prior to the migration you can manage your settings and unsubscribe via: https://lists.ripe.net/mailman/listinfo/iot-discussion We will send an announcement, including a pointer to the new management interface, once the migration has been completed. Regards, Marco Hogewoning RIPE NCC
