The Executive Board is working with the RIPE NCC Senior Management on various options that could be included in the Charging Scheme. It would like to solicit feedback from members on two Charging Scheme models before deciding on a final version to present at the GM. The two models are based on established RIPE NCC organisational principles. Both models, as well as an explanation of the models' features and differences, are presented at: https://www.ripe.net/lir-services/ncc/gm/november-2011/ripe-ncc-proposed-new-charging-scheme-2012 The RIPE NCC Executive Board welcomes any feedback on the proposed models. You can provide your feedback by using the online form or by sending an email directly to agm at ripe.net. After considering the feedback from the membership on the proposed Charging Scheme models, the Executive Board will decide which model it will present to the membership at the GM. If you wish to discuss the proposed new Charging Scheme models with other RIPE NCC members, please start a discussion on the members-discuss at ripe.net mailing list.

Kind regards, Rumy Spratley-Kanis Training Services Manager RIPE NCC From alexb at ripe.net Wed Aug 24 16:18:09 2011 From: alexb at ripe.net (Alex Band) Date: Wed, 24 Aug 2011 16:18:09 +0200 Subject: [ncc-announce] LIR Portal X.509 Authentication change Message-ID: <5B2DD980-2D22-45B5-97AF-E1C935DE298C@ripe.net> [Apologies for duplicate emails] Dear colleagues, This announcement applies to any LIR Portal users that currently sign in using an X.509 certificate in their browser. On Tuesday, 6 September, the RIPE NCC will deploy an update to the LIR Portal, replacing the existing X.509 login system with a new, more robust and easier to maintain platform. The update will also make a fundamental change to user management. In the current system, any user can decide to generate and use an identity certificate to log in; under the new system, it will be up to the LIR Portal administrator to allow that LIR's users to login using X.509 certificates. There will be an article published on RIPE Labs around the time of deployment that will will go into greater detail about these changes. For now, however, it is important to note that: 1. The upgrade will mean that on 6 September, users currently accessing the LIR portal via X.509 certificates will no longer be able to do so. All users will still be able to access the LIR Portal using their RegID, username and password. 2. Users wishing to access the LIR Portal using an X.509 identity certificate will need to generate a new certificate. If you are not the LIR Portal administrator, you will need to have your administrator generate a certificate for you. Details on this process will be included in the RIPE Labs article. A further announcement will be sent to this mailing list on 6 September. If you have any questions or comments in the meantime, please contact sw-enhancements at ripe.net.
