BoFs are going ahead at the virtual RIPE Meeting and the DBTF will have a time slot. The DBTF needs to investigate how to best collect feedback before and during the BoF as everything will be online. The DBTF discussed asking for feedback to the community before the BoF to save time.

Shane will send an email to the ripe-list to discuss IPAM usage within the community related to the recent DBTF survey results. 

Ed will explore more statistics on how IRT objects are used.

Bijal will draft slides for the Community Plenary and schedule calls for next meetings to discuss next steps and how to prepare for RIPE 80.

Boris will look into which tools/platforms can be used to foster engagement before and during the BoF. 

Each member of the DBTF will continue its work on a different RIPE Database purpose/requirement.
