Dear collegues,

I put my hat (again) into the ring and ask you to support me as a candiate for co-chairing this WG.

I think that this WG is still trying to find it's place in the RIPE community, the overall acitivity level has beend a bit low. Of course the years of the pandemic and the lack of opportunities to meet in person were not helpful. Nevertheless it seems that IoT is still something that is often considered to live in the consumer space, and also many carriers currently seem to have other priorities.

With the expanding support of IP for IoT connectivity - i.e. the Thread and Matter protcol - I think this WG can work more closely with the other RIPE WGs and should working on linkinf with other RIPE WGs and standardisation and industry entities to better understand what this RIPE WG can contribute.

There are already activities (IETF home gateway WG, Telcom Infra Project) in this field and also carriers bit by bit seems to pay more attention to IoT. Industrial IoT is also getting traction and new technologies like LiFi are emerging. Such should also come this WG's attention and there's are strong tendency to move toward IP (in my understanding).

As a WG chair I would focus working on connecting the ongoing activities to form technical standards and reference implementations for easy adoption by the industry. I would also work on advocating those to industry players (i.e. via Broadband Forum & prpl Foundation & Telcom Infrastructure Project - TIP) to get broader support for these activities as well. In my role as project manager for prplOS in the prpl Foundation I also propose technologies for adoption & funding by the prpl Foundation and it's members, as well as in the TIP project where we contribute technology and solutions to the Open Coverged Wireless WG (and recently started working on IoT integration as well).

I would appreaciate your support for my standing for co-chair for this WG and supporting it's activities. I still think that this WG can make meaningful contributions - we had a good start with the BCOP document and it was a pleasure for me to work with the participating WG members.

Sincerly,
Peter Steinhaeuser

I am very supportive of Peter doing this!

I thik that these are astute observations.
I really enjoyed the RIPE79 (Rotterdam) IoT hackathon.

I think that there are interesting operational things that RIPE IoT WG could
have deeper converations about.  There will be a grandchild-of-HOMENET effo=
rt
at the IETF that might get called SNAC.  It would be interesting to me to do
some kind of *interop* testing of IoT systems and ISP systems.

This kind of promotion of new open source systems and open-stand.org
(standards) is really important to me as well.
