Sander, You sent your answers directly to me in the correspondence below and unfortunately you lied. Here are two links to private presentations about Ops-Trust: https://www.docdroid.net/xfaKhhY/f41lf3st2015-trident-toothed-and-pronged-p… https://www.docdroid.net/xqTWVQW/first-2014-vixie-paul-op-sec-trust-pdf For anyone that wrote about conspiracies I suggest to read these two presentations. They shed a light about what is happening behind the scenes,who is really controlling the internet organizations such as RIPE NCC behind the scenes, Ops-Trust community secret website is: https://portal.ops-trust.net/ Returning again to your answers below Sander, you wrote that no data is shared - but not only that data is shared according to the first presentation link above - but Ops-Trust also have a classification for the data which is shared as can be seen in page 6 of the first presentation, let me read to you what is code red from this page: "RED when information cannot be effectively acted upon by additional parties, and could lead to impacts on a party's privacy, reputation or operations if misused" All that data is being shared with Law Enforcement Agencies without any warrants. Ops-Trust is the biggest privacy violation scandal since the beginning of the internet, according to the two above presentations Ops-Trust community is being used as a system to bypass the privacy laws in the European Union and in North America. Creating a very big group of a mob-like members that vouch for each others like criminals and transferring users data between each others, without any supervision and without any regulation, secretly. Sander, according to the presentations above you are a liar and according to your admission that you are part of the Ops-Trust community you are also a criminal. Because what being done in Ops-Trust (a systematic method to overcome the privacy laws on a massive scale and without warrants) is illegal.

Administrative procedures within RIPE NCC: Any way to soften it ?
by Clement Cavadore 09 Jul '20

09 Jul '20

Dear members, I wanted to share my recent experience regarding the painful administrative & bureaucratic procedures within RIPE NCC, and start a discussion with you, in order to see if some of you feel the same, and, if its the case, if we could make it evolve in order to enhance the "customer experience" :-). TL;DR: I feel that the due diligence procedures at RIPE NCC are too strict, and that they should be a bit more human when having to deal with administrative changes. >From my own experience, here is what happenned to me: One of my customer (let's call them A) has been a member for years, and it has been acquired/reorganized multiple times before when I started to work with him. As a responsible (new) LIR admin, I wanted to make its administrative status relevant with their real situation. That was a big mistake! While I can admit that the juridic situation was quite complex, we had to spend months in exchanging documents in order to justify every move, but in the end, the only option that we had, was to open a new LIR, and move its resources from the "legacy LIR" to the new one. We decided at some time, that it was not worth to waste more time than already done, so we did that, and A' was born (and we are going to move A resources to A'). ... but a few months later: Same player play again ! Another customer of mine (B, which is a sister company of A), needed its membership to be updated, as their original structure has been terminated (integrated in another company, partial merge, rename etc). => Well, after weeks of legal documents exchange, we were told by the RIPE NCC that all the justifications have been verified, and that was we were initially asking was OK... BUT... that they couldn't simply change the name of its LIR, because it has not been a full acquisition. The only valid/useable option would be to make B become a member on its own, and to transfer from the former LIR to that shiny new LIR (other option was to move the resources in A' and make assignations for B, but that is not an option for the end user's org). I have been talking with others members among my contacts, and they all say that having to deal with RIPE NCC on administrative topics is a pain in the ass. My question is simple: 1- Is there some ways to make RIPE NCC a bit more flexible, when the situation allows it? 2- For my particular case: Given that the "historic LIRs" from A & B only had some transferable resources, and given the fact that there were clear justification: Why not simply allowing a LIR name change? I cannot believe that the only option in order to sort out administrative mess, is to open new membership and terminate older membership. I know that RIPE NCC's income will lower in the next future, due to LIR consolidation, but at the moment, I am a bit feeling that the rigid procedures are only a mean for RIPE NCC to get new opening fee and double billing for new members/future closed members. For the RIPE NCC staff: I bet you could easily find which members I am talking about (and if not, I can share the ticket numbers in private). I can understand that your procedures have to be a bit strict in order to avoid resources Hijacks/illegal transfers, but when the situations seems understandable and correct, I'd like to see you exercise good judgment when it seems valid justifications. I just do not want to disclose the member's name publicly, as they didn't ask me to write this email. But since I am managing multiple LIRs, I thought it would be interesting to deal that topic on the membership level. If you have some experiences to share, go ahead ! Thanks for reading until the end ! -- Clément Cavadore

Feedback on Mailing List/Board Election Issues - Follow-Up
by Christian Kaufmann 03 Jul '20

03 Jul '20

Dear members, In my previous email, I pointed to three areas of concern that came up ahead of our last General Meeting. Here is the promised follow-up on the third of these, which regards the ability to stand as a candidate in the RIPE NCC Executive Board elections. After discussing the topic, the board has agreed that the best course of action is to assemble a task force of members whose goal will be to evaluate the nomination and election process. The outcome of this evaluation will be a set of recommendations for the board to consider at its September meeting, followed by a proposal to be presented to the RIPE NCC membership at the October General Meeting. In this way, any necessary actions that need to be put to members for voting can happen before the next election takes place. This is not to say that the work of the task force will come to an end in September, as it may be that some of the relevant issues will still require further attention at that point. Specific topics we expect to be addressed include the introduction of measures for the qualification and verification of candidates, issues around representation in biographies and statements of support, and possibilities for allowing members greater opportunity to engage with and question candidates prior to the election. More generally, the task force will be aiming to ensure that those who stand for the board have the right expertise and background. We are, as of now, seeking volunteers willing to join the task force. We would like to see a diverse group of members apply, representing different regions and sectors of the membership. Please note that all meetings of the task force will be held remotely and will be organised by the RIPE NCC. To volunteer, please email agm(a)ripe.net by 8 July, remembering to let us know your country and organisation. We will then announce further details to you once the task force is formed. Kind regards Christian Kaufmann Executive Board Chairman RIPE NCC

The comments were constructive and it was very helpful to find that there is support for the service. What we heard was that while the listing service might not be used that much, it's worth preserving an option for members who don't want to go through a broker. That being the case, and as there is no urgent need to retire the service, we will keep it as-is for now. We are just about to start our planning for next year. Given that transfers will probably be with us for longer than we want to continue supporting the current implementation, we will also see if we can find a more permanent solution.
