[ipv6-wg@ripe.net] Call for Papers - Next Global IPv6 Summit in Spain
by JORDI PALET MARTINEZ 07 Feb '05

07 Feb '05

Hi all, As indicated in the email below, the next Global IPv6 Summit in Spain, the bigger IPv6 European event, in its 4th edition (after a very successful organization and broad international attendance in 2001, 2002 and 2003), will be organized this time in Barcelona, next June 2005, with a expected audience over 2.600 key decisions makers from ICT sectors. The main target of the event is business oriented talks, as well as talks oriented to policy makers, information/knowledge society, education and public sectors. This Call for Papers doesn't require that you submit a complete paper (which is welcome also), but instead, a short plain text abstract of your presentation topic, by email. Talks regarding deployment experiences, new services and applications will be of key interest for the expected attendance, and hence highly encouraged. We believe that key topics will be also those regarding: 1) IPv6 and business 2) IPv6 and Broadband 3) New IPv6-based services and applications 4) IPv6 and the Digital Home 5) IPv6 and Multimedia, Voice/Video applications 6) IPv6, Mobility, Wireless and 3G 7) IPv6 and Ambient Intelligence/Ubiquitous Computing/Distributed Systems 8) IPv6 and GRIDs 9) IPv6 and logistics, transport and eSafety 10) IPv6 for eHealth, eGoverment, eLearning and other "e-whatever" 11) IPv6 and gamming 12) IPv6 and peer-to-peer 13) IPv6 and security 14) IPv6 and Open Source 15) IPv6 and marketing/branding Also topics regarding Standards, Research, Development and Innovation experiences are welcome, including R&D projects results. The Agenda will be drafted early in March, so the dead-line for submitting your topic is only until 25th February, but as said only a short abstract is required. If you're interested in participating, or you have any special idea, even if your topic is not in the list above, please don't hesitate to contact me (jordi.palet(a)consulintel.es) ASAP, so we can work out any options. Regards, Jordi PS: Please, feel free to circulate this email among your contacts. ------ Mensaje reenviado De: JORDI PALET MARTINEZ <jordi.palet(a)consulintel.es> Responder a: <jordi.palet(a)consulintel.es> Fecha: Mon, 07 Feb 2005 18:25:42 +0100 Para: "members(a)ipv6forum.com" <members(a)ipv6forum.com>, <tf-sc(a)ipv6tf.org> Asunto: Next Global IPv6 Summit in Spain Hi all, As I already informed a few weeks ago, the next Global IPv6 Summit in Spain will be held this time in Barcelona next June (instead of Madrid in March as previously forecasted). This will happen starting on June 6th, with a tutorial in the morning, the opening ceremony in the afternoon, with some keynotes and then 2-3 days of IPv6 conference, depending on the success of the call for papers. If required we can extend our event up to Friday 10th (total 4 days, plus opening ceremony, plus half day tutorial). In this occasion, we will try a completely new model, integrating the IPv6 conference in a bigger event, more business oriented, even when technical sessions will be still present. The "umbrella" event is Internet Global Congress (IGC), with has been organized in Barcelona already during the 6 previous years. The Internet Global Congress, the leading Internet and New Technologies congress in Spain, is organized by the Fundació Barcelona Digital, a non-profit organization, which also provides space for exhibition and delivers the IGC awards for Digital Innovation (aimed to students and professionals with embryonic Internet projects, aims to be a launch platform for all those people involved in research and innovation in the field of Internet and the New Technologies). IGC provides us all the infrastructure for organizing the Global IPv6 Summit track, and we only need to manage our own agenda, and consequently our own call for papers (see next email). They also they care about all the issues related to registration, proceedings and publicity, at no cost for us. We expect that this will be the bigger IPv6 event in Europe during 2005, with an expected attendance over 2.600 people, which of course, will be able to attend not just to the IPv6 track but also to other IT tracks (already depicted at http://www.igcweb.net, then click at Program). The attendance is mainly CTOs, CEOs and other key decision makers related to ICT, so its a very nice opportunity for IPv6 in Europe to meet a large audience which probably has not been in touch with IPv6 until now. I count with the support from all of you, and please do not hesitate to let me know any ideas that you may have to make an even more successful event that what for sure we will have in a so nice city as Barcelona. More information will be soon available at http://www.ipv6-es.com and http://www.igcweb.net.

[ipv6-wg@ripe.net] RPSLng in the RIPE Whois Database
by Shane Kerr 21 Dec '04

21 Dec '04

Dear Colleagues, Beginning Wednesday 29 December 2004, the RIPE Database will support RPSLng. RPSLng extends the Routing Policy Specification Language (RPSL) allowing description of IPv6 and multicast routing policies. It includes a new object type, ROUTE6, and new attributes, such as "mp-import:" and "mp-export:". RPSLng was submitted to the IETF to become an RFC. You can read the most recent draft at: http://www.radb.net/rpslng-08.html This change will not affect the current contents of the database. It is optional for any objects you maintain. The main differences for query users are as follows: - Currently a query for an IPv4 address or network may return INETNUM, ROUTE, and INET-RTR objects. A query for an IPv6 address or network can only return an INET6NUM object. After we put RPSLng into production, IPv6 queries will start to also return ROUTE6 and INET-RTR objects, if they are in the database. - Currently an inverse query (using the "-i" flag) for AUT-NUM objects may return ROUTE objects. After we put RPSLng into production, a query will return both ROUTE and ROUTE6 objects. If you want to limit your query, you can use the "-T" flag. For example, if you only want ROUTE objects returned to an inverse query, you can type: whois -h whois.ripe.net -T route -i origin AS3333 Please change your scripts if necessary. We will not move the contents of the RPSLng prototype Whois server to the RIPE Whois Database. You will have to create any objects that define your routing policy in the production RIPE Whois Database. You can update the RPSLng prototype Whois server until the start of January 2005. The query interface will be available until the end of January 2005. -- Shane Kerr Software Manager RIPE NCC

[ipv6-wg@ripe.net] RPSLng database deployment?
by Bernhard Schmidt 20 Oct '04

20 Oct '04

Dear all, having missed the last RIPE meeting I'm unfortunately somewhat out of date regarding this, but could someone please enlighten me about the current plans for deployment of RPSLng in the regular RIPE database? I am using rpslng.ripe.net, but unfortunately almost noone else does. Running a network without any sustainable prefix authorization sucks quite hard, it is a real pain to have to contact your upstream by mail if you have a new prefix (besides other things). Are there any problems with RPSLng currently? Thanks Bernhard
