[lir-wg] New Draft Document announcement
- Date: Tue, 29 Apr 2003 17:59:55 +0200
Dear Colleagues,
The RIPE NCC has prepared a draft document titled "Improved Secure
Communication System for RIPE NCC Members":
http://www.ripe.net/ripe/draft-documents/pki-20030429.html
Abstract
There is a need for secure communication between the RIPE NCC and
its members. This document presents an overview of the current
communication system, and a new approach based on X.509 PKI (Public
Key Infrastructure) technology and standards that will make
interaction with the services provided by the RIPE NCC to its
members more convenient and secure. Finally, the phases necessary
to implement the system are described.
The idea behind publishing this as a draft document is to give RIPE
NCC members time to read it and provide feedback. If the LIRs agree
with the ideas presented, then it will become a RIPE document and act
as a basis for the project.
The draft document can be discussed on the LIR Working Group,
lir-wg@localhost, or you can send comments to
pki-suggestions@localhost.
Best regards,
--
