[Apologies for duplicates] Dear Colleagues The Number Resource Organization (NRO) has participated in the World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS) and related activities since the beginning, and it is a process to which the RIPE NCC and all other RIRs are strongly devoted. In response to the Tunis WSIS agenda, the NRO has released "Continuing Cooperation - The NRO's Role in Internet Governance".

The report focuses on the major themes of the 2007 Internet Governance Forum (IGF): Access, Diversity, Openness, Security and Critical Internet Infrastructure. The report was distributed this week at the IGF in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. In an effort to further enhance mutual awareness and understanding the report is now available to all on the NRO website at: http://www.nro.net/docs/brochure.pdf (high resolution) http://www.nro.net/docs/brochure-mediumres.pdf (medium resolution) Questions or requests for additional information about the work of the NRO or RIRs may be directed to nro(a)nro.net.

Highlights ======== Resolution on IPv4 Depletion ---------------------------- Following discussion in several RIPE Working Groups, the RIPE community agreed to issue a statement on IPv4 depletion and the deployment of IPv6. This statement, "RIPE Community Resolution on IPv4 Depletion and Deployment of IPv6", was developed by consensus and will be used as the community's formal position regarding IPv4 depletion. The statement was presented in the Closing Plenary by the Address Policy Working Group Co-Chair, Sander Steffann (Computel Standby). The statement can be found online at: http://www.ripe.net/ripe/meetings/ripe-55/presentations/steffan-resolution.… On Tuesday afternoon, the dedicated IPv4 Depletion session took place, which included a lively discussion.
