Hi, Recently, Thomas Trede let me and Rob Blokzijl know that he was no longer available as chairman of the IPv6 working group. He proposed to me and Rob Blokzijl if I could take up this function for the next RIPE meeting. I have agreed to do so. I would like to thank Thomas for chairing the working group. Attached please find the 1st draft of the proposed agenda for the IPv6 wg meeting during RIPE32 in Amsterdam. A working group session is supposed to have active participation of it's members. In the past, we have seen a fair amount of interest in the topic of IPv6 but at the same time a lack of knowledge from parts of the audience. I would like to know if there are volunteers who are willing to talk about the following topics: - How to get started with IPv6: sample IPv6 setup - using one of the available implementations - IPv6 routing/multi homing - IPv6 address allocation - general introduction to IPv6 - or anything that you think that might be useful. Furthermore, on a topic that is closely related to the lir-wg, I am looking for somebody from the RIPE NCC who can give us an update on the IPv6 allocation status. Other topics and input is of course more then welcome! I am looking forward to see many of you in Amsterdam!
