Dear colleagues,
The RIPE NCC Executive Board is seeking volunteers to join the Arbiters
Panel in accordance with the requirements of the RIPE NCC Conflict
Arbitration Procedure and the RIPE NCC Articles of Association.
Wilfried Woeber and Pierre Baume have recently resigned from their
positions as arbiters.
The following eight people currently make up the panel of arbiters:
- Nick Williams
- Kurt Kayser
- Jaap Akkerhuis
- Keith Mitchell
- Alireza Ghafarallahi
- David Freedman

The Executive Board is asking for volunteers to take seats on the
Arbiters Panel. The Executive Board will then appoint several arbiters,
depending on the number of volunteers. These appointments will be
presented to the RIPE NCC General Meeting on 16 May 2018 for approval by
the membership.
See below for information on the Conflict Arbitration Procedure,
