Dear RIPE Community,
We last gave an update on our progress in October:
- https://www.ripe.net/ripe/mail/archives/ripe-list/2020-October/001978.html
As a reminder: the Code of Conduct TF was established after a call for
volunteers in September and we have been meeting every two weeks. We
are chartered to produce three documents:
1. A Code of Conduct (CoC) for all RIPE activities
2. A process for selecting a CoC Team
3. Reporting and operational procedures for the CoC Team
In our October update, we said that we intended to publish an updated
draft CoC in November (with the remaining two documents to come
later).
While we are almost ready to publish our draft, we needed time to
review the recent GM vote to apply the RIPE CoC to Executive Board
elections. We wanted to consider whether this would place additional
burdens on the yet-to-be-formed CoC Team.
We have now established that while the RIPE NCC Executive Board might
decide to use the RIPE CoC for its elections, this would be a separate
implementation from the community's.
We now expect that we will be ready to publish an updated draft RIPE
Code of Conduct on this list in January. Based on the community's
feedback, the TF will then evaluate whether further updates are
needed, or if we can ask the RIPE Chair Team to determine whether
there is consensus on the document.
We thank you for your patience and wish you all a happy end to 2020
and a successful 2021.
Best wishes,
Leo Vegoda
For the RIPE Code of Conduct TF
Dear colleagues,
We decided, together with the RIPE NCC, that RIPE 82 will take place as
a virtual meeting from 17-21 May 2021.
While we were looking forward to seeing you all in Berlin, 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
RIPE 83.
That being said, we received positive feedback about people’s virtual
experience at RIPE 81 and we are already working behind the scenes to
make RIPE 82 even better.
For updates on the meeting, please keep an eye on this mailing list and
the RIPE 82 website <https://ripe82.ripe.net>.
You can also follow @ripemeeting on Twitter.
Best regards,
Mirjam Kühne, RIPE Chair
Niall O’Reilly, RIPE Vice Chair
Dear colleagues,
