Subject: RIPE Community Requests that ICANN Signs DNS Root
Message-ID: <4670FCA5.6070505@ripe.net>

[Apologies for duplicates.]

Dear Colleagues,

During the RIPE 54 Meeting in Tallinn, Estonia on 7 -11 October, the 
RIPE DNS Working Group agreed that a formal request should be made to 
the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) for it 
to sign the DNS root as soon as possible.

The working group formulated a statement and asked the RIPE community 
for endorsement during the closing plenary.

The RIPE community unanimously supported this statement and, as a 
result, a formal letter of request was sent to ICANN. This letter, which 
includes the statement, can be viewed at:

Axel Pawlik

Managing Director
RIPE NCC
