[ipv6-wg] RIPE Policy Development Process

Dear Colleagues

We are pleased to announce that Rob Blokzijl, RIPE Chair, has published a 
new RIPE Document, "Policy Development Process in RIPE", (ripe-350). This 
document formally describes the policy development process. The updated 
process is operational from today, 1 September 2005.

A new RIPE web page describes all the active policy proposals and their 
status. Each proposal has a page showing its history, status and all 
supporting documentation. This page can be found at:

http://www.ripe.net/ripe/policies/proposals/index.html

A new mailing list <policy-announce at ripe.net> has been created for 
announcing policy proposals and tracking them through the policy 
development process. This is not a discussion list; discussions will 
continue to take place on relevant RIPE Working Group lists and at RIPE 
Meetings. You can subscribe to the policy-announce list at:

List archives are available at:

Kind regards
