Endorsement of Afrinic board candidates
by Sander Steffann 05 Jul '19

05 Jul '19

Hi RIPE ASO/AC delegates, I just read the following on the Afrinic community mailing list, and got a bit concerned: > My name is Wafa Dahmani from Tunisia, an active member of the African community and more specifically AFRINIC: member of the appeal committee; ASO / AC excom member and Ex Chair of Governance Committee '(GC) at AFRINIC. > I contact you to solicit your votes for the following candidates: > [etc] While she doesn't explicitly state that she is soliciting votes on behalf of the ASO/AC, it does seem to imply it. I found it hard to believe that the ASO/AC would agree with this statement as sent by Wafa. I know questions about this have already been sent to the ASO/AC, but I would like some feedback from our own delegates. I wonder whether you were aware of this and what your positions on this are. I suspect that this was not something agreed to by the ASO/AC, or at least not by our own delegates, but I would like that confirmed please :) I though long whether to cross-post this to the ripe-list and in the end decided that I should, for transparency's and accountability's sake. Cheers, Sander

Hi Hervé, > Thanks for sharing, we discovered today. In that case you have already answered the main part of my question :) If it was only discovered today then this can't have been agreed to by the ASO/AC :) Cheers, Sander

Please also note that speakers do not receive any extra reduction or funding towards the meeting fee at the RIPE Meetings. However, on an individual basis, participants can apply for a RIPE Fellowship or RACI, see the "Speakers" paragraph in CFP for more information. Kind regards, Franziska Lichtblau RIPE PC Chair https://ripe79.ripe.net/ripe-pc/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Call for Presentations A RIPE Meeting is an open event where Internet Service Providers, network operators and other interested parties get together. Although the meeting is mostly technical, it is also a chance for people to meet and network with others in their field. *RIPE 79 will take place from 14-18 October in Rotterdam, The Netherlands* The RIPE Programme Committee (PC) is now seeking content proposals from the RIPE community for the plenary sessions, BoFs (Birds of a Feather sessions), panels, workshops, tutorials and lightning talks at RIPE 79. See the full descriptions of the different presentation formats: https://ripe79.ripe.net/submit-topic/presentation-forma ts/ Proposals for plenary sessions, BoFs, panels, workshops and tutorials must be submitted for full consideration no later than *16 August 2019*. Proposals submitted after this date will be considered depending on the slots still available in the programme. The PC is looking for presentations covering the topics of network engineering and operations, including but not limited to: - IPv6 deployment - Managing IPv4 scarcity - Data centre technologies - Network and DNS operations - Internet governance and regulatory practices - Network and routing security - Content delivery - Internet peering and mobile data exchange - Connected Things (aka. Internet of Things - IoT) _____________________________________________________ Speakers _____________________________________________________ Presenters, RIPE Working Group Chairs and the RIPE Programme Committee are required to cover their own costs to attend a RIPE Meeting (meeting ticket, travel and accommodation). We have various ticket options available depending on your needs. Please note that participants can apply for a RIPE Fellowship or RACI, on an individual basis, to develop their professional or academic career.

These requests are dealt with on a case-by-case basis via pc(a)ripe.net. _____________________________________________________ Submissions _____________________________________________________ Presenters should be clear on whether they wish to submit a presentation for a plenary or working group (WG) session. At present, most working groups will solicit policy proposals, discussion points or other content directly via their mailing lists. If you’re not sure what kind of session you should be presenting at, please visit: https://ripe79.ripe.net/plenary-or-wg/ RIPE Meeting attendees are quite sensitive to keeping presentations non- commercial, and product marketing talks are strongly discouraged. Repeated audience feedback shows that the most successful talks focus on operational experience, research results, or case studies. For example, presenters wishing to describe a commercial solution should focus on the underlying technology and should not attempt a product demonstration. Presenters should indicate how much time they will require. In general, the time allocated for the different presentation formats is as follows: - Plenary presentations: 20-25 minutes presentation with 5-10 minutes discussion - Tutorials: up to two hours (Monday morning) - Workshops: one hour (during evening sessions) to two hours (Monday morning) - BoFs: approximately one hour (during evening sessions) - Lightning talks: 10 minutes in total for both the presentation and any discussion The following general requirements apply: - Proposals must be submitted using the meeting submission system, https://ripe79.ripe.net/submit-topic/ - Lightning talks should also be submitted using the meeting submission system (https://ripe79.ripe.net/submit-topic/) and can be submitted any time up to and including the meeting week. The allocation of lightning talks will be announced on short notice, in some cases on the same day but often one day prior to the time slot allocated. - Presenters who propose a panel or BoF are encouraged to include speakers from several (perhaps even competing) companies and/or a neutral facilitator. - All presentation proposals will only be considered by the PC if they contain at least draft presentation slides (slides may be updated later on). For panels, proposals must contain a clear description, as well as the names of invited panellists, presenters and moderators. _____________________________________________________ Diversity and Inclusion - On-Site Childcare and the RIPE _____________________________________________________ Meeting Code of Conduct _____________________________________________________ Did you know that RIPE Meetings now have on-site childcare?

Re: [ripe-list] [ncc-announce] [news] New RIPE NCC Ticketing System and Contact Form
by sergey＠devnull.ru 01 Jul '19

01 Jul '19

Dear Matt, I have a question regarding new ticketing system. Some days ago I sent an email and attached a file to my message. I received a receipt of ticket, then the NCC staff member replied to my question and I received a mail that contain a previous email content and a weblink to the file I attached before. The link was active and I was able to download the file. The link points to https://ripencc.zendesk.com/attachments/token/blablabla/?name=filename. The problem I see is that ripencc.zendesk.com is a hostname on the server in a cloud, the network is assigned to an Irish company and it seems that the file storage is not under RIPE NCC's control. This hostname is not reachable over IPv6, but this is not the issue I wish to discuss now. Can you clarify whether e-mail attachments/archives at RIPE NCC are stored at the third party servers? Do you think it is acceptable? Thank you. -- Kind regards, Sergey Myasoedov > On 1 Nov 2017, at 14:12, Matt Parker <mparker(a)ripe.net> wrote: > > Dear Colleagues, > > Today, the RIPE NCC launches its new ticketing system.
