ASO AC Call for Nominations for Seat 9 on the ICANN Board
by Axel Pawlik 24 Oct '14

24 Oct '14

Dear colleagues, Consistent with the ASO Memorandum of Understanding and ICANN Bylaws, the Address Supporting Organization Address Council (ASO AC) calls for nominations for Seat Number 9 on the ICANN Board of Directors. Nominations will close at 23:59 UTC on Wednesday, 31 December 2014. The time frame for the selection process is as follows: - Nomination Phase 24 October 2014 to 31 December 2014 - Comment Phase 1 January 2015 to 31 March 2015 - Interview Phase 1 February 2015 to 31 March 2015 - Selection Process 1 April 2015 to 17 April 2015 - Due Diligence Review 18 April 2015 to 31 May 2015 - Announcement no later than 1 June 2015 The ICANN Bylaws state that no two directors selected by a Supporting Organization can come from the same Geographic Region. Because the ASO AC selection for Seat 10 is from the APNIC region, nominees for Seat 9 cannot also come from this region. All candidates must sign a Letter of Certification declaring that they are of good character. The selected candidate will undergo an independent due diligence review by an ICANN contractor, and announcement of the candidate will follow once this review has been successfully completed. Community members are invited to submit nominations by email to <nominations2015(a)aso.icann.org>, including the following information: - The full name of the person being nominated - Contact email address for the person being nominated - Contact telephone number (if available) of the person being nominated - The full name of the person making the nomination - Contact email address for the person making the nomination - Contact telephone number of the person making the nomination The election procedures are found in Section 7 of the ASO AC Operating Procedures, which are available at: https://aso.icann.org/documents/operational-documents/operating-procedures-… For further information and ongoing notices about the selection process, please visit: https://aso.icann.org/aso-icann/icann-board-elections/2015-elections/ Kind regards Axel Pawlik Managing Director RIPE NCC

IANA Stewardship: Draft RIPE Proposal Published
by Chris Buckridge 15 Oct '14

15 Oct '14

Dear colleagues, An initial working draft of the RIPE community proposal on IANA stewardship has been posted to the RIPE Cooperation Working Group mailing list. This text should not be regarded as final - it is intended to act as a basis for discussions over the coming weeks. There will also be a dedicated session at RIPE 69 in London on Thursday, 6 November, to discuss these issues. Remote participation will be available for those unable to be present. Anyone with an interest is encouraged to provide feedback on this draft proposal via the RIPE Cooperation Working Group mailing list. You can subscribe to this list at: http://www.ripe.net/mailman/listinfo/cooperation-wg/ Best regards, Chris Buckridge, RIPE NCC RIPE Community IANA Stewardship Proposal [DRAFT] ———————————————————————— The RIPE community asks the RIPE NCC to work with the other RIRs to produce a common proposal for a legally binding agreement (such as a Service Level Agreement) between ICANN and the RIRs to replace the Internet number-related elements of the ICANN-NTIA agreement. This proposal should meet the requirements of the Request For Proposals (RFP) produced by the IANA Stewardship Transistion Coordination Group (ICG). The proposal should bring the provisions of the agreement related to the services and service levels up-to-date with current requirements where necessary. This work should be coordinated with the other users of the IANA function as much as practical, with the aim of producing a proposed arrangement that is compatible with the proposed arrangements of the other IANA users. The RIPE community asks the RIPE NCC and the other RIRs keep it informed about progress and content of the proposal. The RIPE community asks the RIPE NCC to complete the proposal and to submit it to the ICG before 15 January 2015.

by Paul Rendek 15 Oct '14

15 Oct '14

Dear colleagues, The Number Resource Organization (NRO) has published a series of questions and answers that address some key issues surrounding Regional Internet Registry (RIR) accountability and governance. This follows the publication of an RIR Governance Matrix in August 2014. These two documents provide stakeholders with a solid overview of existing RIR governance structures. You can find the Q&A’s here: https://www.nro.net/about-the-nro/rir-accountability You can find the RIR Governance Matrix here: https://www.nro.net/about-the-nro/rir-governance-matrix Issues of governance and accountability are of particular relevance within the context of the ongoing IANA oversight transition discussions. This process has placed an important focus on the accountability of all Internet administrative organisations. Kind regards Paul Rendek Director of External Relations RIPE NCC

Unwanted Traffic Removal Service (UTRS)
by John Kristoff 14 Oct '14

14 Oct '14

[ Apologies if you have seen this elsewhere already - jtk ] Friends and colleagues, Last week I briefly discussed a new project we've recently launched and for which invited participation from the NANOG 62 attendees. This is a not so subtle wider request for consideration. UTRS is essentially a community RTBH that people have suggested to us would be a good service to provide, so we're giving it a go. The lightning talk page has the slide deck I presented: <https://www.nanog.org/meetings/abstract?id=2436> I've also put some additional technical detail here: <http://www.cymru.com/jtk/misc/utrs.html> There was a brief discussion, mostly criticism and that is fine, that took place on the NANOG list you may wish to review. If you have an assigned ASN and this sounds like something you or your network would like to take advantage of, drop me a line, I'd sure like to hear about it. If you think this is a terrible idea and want to express all that is wrong with it, tell me that too, I can take it. Even if you're unsure if you would ultimately deploy it in production, but are interested in testing it, do contact me. We won't expend energy on this project and will drop it if we there isn't sufficient interest from the community, but enough trial users would be encouraging. Kindly, John
