Call for Public Comments on the 2020 IANA Performance Matrix Summary Report
by Antony Gollan 04 Feb '21

04 Feb '21

This message is sent on behalf of the Number Resource Organization (NRO). *** Call for Public Comments on the 2020 IANA Performance Matrix Summary Report Dear colleagues, As you may be aware, as a result of the successful IANA Stewardship transition in 2016, the IANA Numbering Services are today being managed through an SLA between ICANN and the five Regional Internet Registries (RIRs). As part of the result of the IANA Stewardship transition, the IANA Numbering Services Review Committee (IANA RC) was established in 2016. The IANA RC is composed of representatives from each RIR region, and advises and assists the RIRs in the review of the IANA Numbering Services. The IANA services are today provided by Public Technical Identifiers (PTI), which publishes monthly performance reports on the IANA Numbering Services. Based on these monthly performance reports, the five RIRs have produced the 2020 IANA Performance Matrix Summary Report: https://www.nro.net/2020-RIR-IANA-summary-report 30 Day Public Comment Period The IANA RC is now launching a public comment period of 30 days, seeking comments and input from the community on the IANA numbering services performance and the 2020 IANA Performance Matrix Summary Report. The IANA RC encourages all members of the Internet number community to review the public IANA Performance Matrix Summary Report. Comments on the IANA service performance should be sent to: <iana-performance [at] nro [dot] net>. The IANA RC will publish an annual report in March 2021, as advice to the NRO EC with its evaluation of the IANA Numbering services. The report will be based on the IANA Performance Matrix Summary Report, as well as any input gathered on the performance from the global number community. The public comment period ends on Friday, 5 March 2021 at 23:59 UTC. All public comments will be published on the NRO website in the dedicated IANA RC section (https://www.nro.net/iana-rc-reports), and will be considered as input to the final report by IANA. At the end of the 30-day public comment period, the IANA RC will meet and evaluate all input to the final report. The final IANA RC 2020 Report will be published at: https://www.nro.net/iana-rc-reports <https://www.nro.net/iana-rc-reports Kind regards, Bertrand Cherrier Chair, IANA Numbering Services Review Committee Further Information IANA Numbering Services Review Committee https://www.nro.net/iana-rc Public Technical Identifiers (PTI) https://pti.icann.org/ IANA Stewardship Transition Archive https://www.nro.net/internet-governance/iana/iana-stewardship-transition The SLA for the IANA Numbering Services https://www.nro.net/sla IANA Stewardship Transition Number Community Proposal https://www.nro.net/crisp-final-proposal IANA RC Report 2019: https://www.nro.net/iana-rc-report-2019 IANA RC Report 2018 https://www.nro.net/iana-rc-report-2018 IANA RC Report 2017 https://www.nro.net/iana-rc-report-2017 *** Regards Antony Gollan Senior Communications Officer RIPE NCC

IoT WG Survey
by Constanze Dietrich 11 Jan '21

11 Jan '21

Hi and happy new year everyone! I suspect whoever can afford it is, by now, in some kind of hibernation pre-stage waiting for the madness to be over (Wise choice!). That said, we (co-chairs of the Internet of Things Working Group) want to kick off 2021 by collecting some qualitative input from the RIPE community -- as to what IoT-related topics we should look into, what you'd like to see on the mailing list and during the sessions, who we may collaborate with, where we might contribute... So if you could spare a few minutes to fill in our survey -- that would be great! ;) Survey: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdVVq38C96Mn_Lv8eDgiHGzt3TgzPfx_MM… Note: While we use the survey as a tool to collect feedback beyond the bounds of any mailing list, we intend to publish and discuss the results on the IoT WG mailing list. Cheers and kind regards Constanze Dietrich & Sandoche Balakrichenan

Invitation to the Internet Numbers Community to Participate as Observers in the ASO AC and IANA RC Teleconferences
by Boris Duval 05 Jan '21

05 Jan '21

This message is sent on behalf of the Number Resource Organization (NRO). *** The ASO[1] is one of ICANN’s three Supporting Organizations. They review and develop recommendations on Internet Protocol (IP) address policy and advise the ICANN Board on policy issues relating to the operation, assignment, and management of IP addresses. The ASO Address Council (ASO AC)[2] hold monthly teleconferences, usually on the first Wednesday of each month, with exceptions to avoid clashes with Regional Internet Registry meetings and other meetings relevant to the Internet Numbers Community. Likewise, the IANA Review Committee (IANA RC)[3] advises the NRO EC in its annual review of the service level of the IANA Numbering Services provided to the Regional Internet Registries. The IANA RC hold three or four teleconference meetings each year, on dates agreed by the members to prepare their annual report. The dates for the 2021 meetings of both groups are currently being updated and are available at the following links: ASO AC Meeting Schedule: https://aso.icann.org/aso-ac/meetings/aso-ac-meeting-schedule/ IANA RC Meetings Schedule: https://www.nro.net/accountability/operational/iana-numbering-services-revi… Both the ASO AC and the IANA RC meetings are open to observers.

Update on the RIPE Code of Conduct TF
by Leo Vegoda 21 Dec '20

21 Dec '20

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
