Conference Announcement - Call for Papers 1st IPv6 Conference of the IPv6 Forum in Germany 1999 Ladies and Gentlemen, The newly formed IPv6-Forum, supported by more than 45 companies and institutions from all over the world, organizes jointly with Deutsche Telekom and the DFN Association (German Research Network) a two-day IPv6 Conference in Berlin on December 8th and 9th 1999. The focus of this conference will be to inform the audience about the new Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6), to exchange experiences and to make a contribution to its introduction and deployment. The emphasis will be on the development of the Internet with IPv6 in Europe and in particular the German-speaking part of the world. We would like to ask for active support to the success of this conference from all IPv6 Forum members, Internet users, Internet Service Providers (ISPs), Research and Education and other Internet vendors. While we have secured some excellent contributions from leading experts in this part of the world, we would like to submit this call for papers on current IPv6 standardization, use of the IPv6 address space, use of characteristics and benefits of the new protocol, IPv6 from an ISP perspective, success stories substantiating IPv6 deployment, IPv6 transition strategies, conversion to IPv6 and the meaning of IPv6 for the Internet development in Germany. The conference language is German, in exceptional cases English is welcome. Short papers should be provided no later than September 30th 1999 to the program committee. The program committee will decide by October 15th 1999 on the contributions. Besides the presentations, there will be a possibility for demonstrations of IPv6 solutions from manufacturers and developer teams. For interested companies a sponsoring possibility exists on request. Please pass this announcement to the appropriate persons in your company. Vendors and ISPs are encouraged to inform/invite their customers. Help us to make IPv6 become the core of the New Internet!

----- Forwarded message from Bob Fink <fink(a)es.net> ----- X-Sender: rlfink(a)imap2.es.net X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Pro Version 4.1 Date: Fri, 06 Aug 1999 13:01:12 -0700 To: 6BONE List <6bone(a)ISI.EDU> From: Bob Fink <fink(a)es.net> Subject: first production IPv6 prefix allocated by ARIN to ESnet (2001:0400::/35) Precedence: bulk IPv6 community, Good news! The first production IPv6 prefix has been assigned by ARIN to ESnet (2001:0400::/35). This is a milestone for IPv6. Those networks that had previously requested sTLAs should now reapply to their respective registries (APNIC, ARIN and RIPE-NCC) for them. I have already been getting requests from these registries for validation that requestors qualify under the 6bone bootstrap policy. I would like to thank everyone involved over the last 2 1/2 years in the development of the Aggregatable Global Unicast Address Format and the policies regarding their allocation/assignment. I've included a short history and timeline of this effort below. I would especially like to commend the registries, both for their efforts to provide meaningful stewardship over the IPv6 address space, and for quickly starting the allocation process after IAB/IANA/RIR agreements on allocation policy were finalized. So many thanks to the APNIC, ARIN and RIPE-NCC staff!

What does mean the sentence "The requesting organisation's network must have IPv4 BGP peering relationships with at least three other public Autonomous Systems in the default-free zone", in document RIPE 195? We are trying to translate these documents in Finnish and we didn't exactly understand this. Could You help us?
