Carsten,
I do not understand the outcome of this consultation with the IAB.
There is a trial. There are fragmented directories underneath the country code spaces. Running some directory associated with a domain is a standard practice. There is a need for an interim directory - even I would like to try interoperability outside my +43 backyard without plowing through assorted websites. It is useful to exercise the collation of a larger directory, or take a stab at building a distributed directory in the first place. Everybody registering at this stage clearly knows that he cant claim innocence (mostly not even incompetence :-) on the privacy implications of the current state of technology. Everywhere the regulators are at least in the loop, or driving the trials. I for my part (interim 3.4.e164.arpa registry) cannot observe any lack of visibility and attention by our regulator, telcos, data protection paranoia usual suspects etc.
I would like the person shooting down such a useful idea to come a concrete, workable and timely alternative.
Can I suggest you RIPE guys give this issue a second try in explaining the issue to the IAB ?
well .. I certainly understand the reluctance of RIPE to undertake such a task ..its a administrative headache and I respect that ...they are doing a great deal as it is ..
I may have a talk with some of the other trial folks ..aka Austria and see if they could throw some resources into a simple voluntary web phone book registration system.
thanks,
-Michael
ps: I dont fully grasp the rationale for the involvement of the IAB in such a IMV tactical development support question in the first place. Define it as trial support and go ahead.
This might also be the opportunity to show SRV records at work with a useful job.

After considering the issue with IAB - the RIPE NCC is operating the Tier0 registry on behalf of the IAB - we came to the conclusion that the RIPE NCC shall refrain from offering such an even only temporary ENUM directory service to the community, as such a service would be better carried out by a different entity to preserve a clear understanding of responsibilities in the Internet community.
Also the effects of such a temporary directory relating to the longer term issue of ENUM directories and associated privacy and regulatory issues are not fully explored yet and need more consideration.
Thanks for your understanding - best,
-C.
