[service] Automated Mails Sent in Error
by Fallon Albrecht 25 Aug '21

25 Aug '21

Dear colleagues, Earlier today, a software change caused us to unintentionally send an automated email to 98 members which informed them that we had terminated their Standard Service Agreement (SSA), and blocked their access to the LIR Portal for a short period of time. We are contacting these members to apologise and inform them that this was an error on our part and reassure them that their SSAs remain valid. We would like to publicly note and apologise for our mistake here. Members who have any questions can email <ncc(a)ripe.net>. Kind regards Fallon Albrecht Functional Application Manager RIPE NCC

[news] Membership Survey on Charging Scheme Principles
by Christian Kaufman 09 Aug '21

09 Aug '21

Dear RIPE NCC members, As Chairman of the RIPE NCC Executive Board, I am asking that you assist the Board in formulating the principles of the RIPE NCC Charging Scheme. In May, we presented on this topic at the General Meeting (GM)[1], and now we want to build on that discussion by consulting with you on the core principles that we should incorporate in our charging schemes for the coming years. To that end, we ask you to complete a survey on the charging scheme that will let us know where the membership stands on some key principles. We expect that in some cases there will not be a clear answer, but we may be able to identify some key principles that most members want to see us apply to the charging scheme. The survey is available to take until 14 September at: https://www.ripe.net/participate/forms/apply/charging-scheme-survey-2021/ Note: you will need to log-in to a RIPE NCC Access account that is associated with an LIR to complete the survey. We will also announce an Open House session in September where the Board will be available to discuss the charging scheme model with members. The Executive Board will examine the results of the survey at its Executive Board meeting on 23 September. We will then bring our analysis and a proposal to the membership at the GM in November. Kind regards, Christian Kaufmann RIPE NCC Executive Board Chairman [1] May 2021 GM Presentation: https://www.ripe.net/participate/meetings/gm/meetings/may-2021/documentatio…

[meetings] SEE 9 Will Be a Virtual Meeting, 28 September 2021
by SEEurope 27 Jul '21

27 Jul '21

Dear colleagues, The RIPE NCC together with the SEE Programme Committee have decided that the SEE 9 Meeting will take place as a virtual meeting with a reduced programme on 28 September 2021. While we were looking forward to seeing you all in Ljubljana, we feel this is necessary to protect the health of all attendees and RIPE NCC staff. The situation around COVID-19 is still too uncertain and the risks appear too great to justify a physical meeting. We hope things will get better soon and that we will be able to meet in person for a physical SEE 10 Meeting in 2022. Updates on the meeting format, registration and programme will be posted closer to the date on this mailing list and on the SEE 9 website: https://www.ripe.net/see-9. For any further information and/or clarification, feel free to email <seeurope(a)ripe.net>. Looking forward to seeing you online! Best regards, SEE Meeting Organisation Team RIPE NCC

[Service] RIPE NCC Services Outage
by Razvan Oprea 14 Jul '21

14 Jul '21

Dear RIPE NCC members, At 11:30 (UTC+2) this morning, there were various RIPE NCC service outages. Some public facing services were affected. This included the rsync RPKI Repository and RIPE Database, our website www.ripe.net and other RIPE NCC websites such as the RIPE Meeting site, RIPE Labs and RIPEstat. There were also intermittent failures sending notification emails for Whois updates. Services were restored by 12:00 (UTC+2). Based on the information gathered so far, the outages were caused by a recent upgrade to our configuration management system, which in turn caused a race condition that affected the configuration of a number of servers. Kind regards, Razvan Oprea Senior System Engineer RIPE NCC

[news] Closure of Members With Unpaid Invoices
by Henriette van Ingen 15 Jun '21

15 Jun '21

Dear RIPE NCC members, On 18 May 2021, we started calling the 878 RIPE NCC members with outstanding invoices for their 2021 annual contribution. There are currently 144 members that have still not paid, which is down from 231 last year. Starting today, the Standard Service Agreement (SSA) of all members with an outstanding invoice issued in February 2021 will be automatically terminated and we will begin the process to de-register their Internet number resources. This comes 90 days after the due date of the invoice / 120 days after it was first issued. De-registering resources is a critical event for members. For this reason, we spend a lot of time and effort each year attempting to contact those who will be affected. We have already sent four email reminders to these members in March, April (twice) and May. We have also attempted to contact them via their registered email and phone contacts in the LIR Portal [1]. It would help us greatly if you could make sure to pay your invoice by the due date, which is 30 days from being issued. If you would like to check the payment status of your LIR accounts, you can do so in the LIR Portal or by using the payment link on your invoice. ----------------------------------- For Members in Syria and Iran ----------------------------------- We have still not issued the 2021 invoices for our members in Iran and Syria. This means they are *not* included in the above figures and their status as RIPE NCC members will not be affected. We plan to send an update to these members soon, but for now the situation is largely unchanged since our last message in March: https://www.ripe.net/ripe/mail/archives/ncc-announce/2021-March/001477.html If you have questions, you can always email <billing(a)ripe.net> or call +31 20 535 4444 (9am-5pm CEST, from Monday to Friday). Kind regards, Henriette van Ingen Registry Services Assistant Manager RIPE NCC [1] Please take a moment to check that your account details in the LIR Portal are up to date: https://my.ripe.net/#/account-details
