Dear Colleagues,
Thank you very much for the support received regarding the 'Draft proposal for a MoU-based ASO'. As you know, your support is essential to the process and therefore very much appreciated.
Discussions following the announcement of the draft proposal on 8 July 1999, and at the recent open ASO meeting which took place at the IETF in Oslo, modifications to the draft proposal were suggested.
Would be nice to see the discussions on the web: http://www.ripe.net/mail-archives/aso-discuss/index.html Last posting is from June 23, 1999 -Hank
Following discussions between the RIR excecutive boards, taking into account the collective interests of our communities, further adjustments were made to the proposal which we believe will enhance the prospect of its adoption by ICANN.
A proposal for the formation of an ASO has now been formally submitted to ICANN jointly by the Regional Internet Registries: APNIC, ARIN and RIPE NCC. The 'Proposal for a MoU-based ASO' can be found on the RIPE NCC Web site under the 'Current Issues' section at:
http://www.ripe.net/info/ncc/icann.html
Below please find the modified sections of the draft text as well as comments supporting the motivation for each of these changes.
As the adjustments to this proposal have been made for clarity purposes to ensure fair and open processes in all regions, we hope that we can count on your continued support.
Kind Regards, Mirjam Kuehne RIPE NCC
