[ncc-announce] [news] New Policy Proposal for Voluntary Transfer Lock

Dear colleagues,

A new RIPE Policy proposal, 2023-03, ‘Voluntary Transfer Lock,’ has just 
been published for community discussion.

The purpose of this proposal is to allow holders of resources registered 
with the RIPE NCC to lock the transfer of these resources for a certain 
amount of time. You can read the full RIPE Policy proposal at:
https://www.ripe.net/participate/policies/proposals/2023-03

As we shared in our message on 30 December[1], we have already 
implemented a ‘voluntary registry lock’ feature that is accessible 
through the LIR Portal for those who need this option immediately. 
However, this feature is only available temporarily. If you would like a 
transfer lock option to remain available, share your comments on the 
proposal on the RIPE NCC Services Working Group mailing list.

You can message the mailing list by emailing <ncc-services-wg at ripe.net>. 
Please note that you must be a subscriber to post to this list [2].

Kind regards,

Marco Schmidt
Manager Registration Services
RIPE NCC
