Dear Colleagues, Following the approval of Policy Proposal 2009-02, "Allocating/Assigning Resources to the RIPE NCC", the RIPE NCC requested that an IPv6 PI assignment be assigned to it for RIPE Meetings. The RIPE NCC pool of arbiters decided, based on RIPE Policy Document ripe-476, “Allocating/Assigning Resources to the RIPE NCC", that the request met the criteria for the assignment of PI IPv6. For more information on the RIPE NCC's initial request to the arbiters, and details of the arbiters' decision, see: http://www.ripe.net/info/ncc/ipv6-pi-request-to-arbiters.pdf For more information on the arbiters, see: http://www.ripe.net/membership/arbitration.html Best regards, The Arbitration panel and Axel Pawlik Managing Director RIPE NCC
