Dear Test-box hosts and RIS-users,


This is to let you know that that the RIPE NCC New Projects department
will be closed for Christmas and New Year on the following days:

    Tuesday    December 24   after 14:00 CET
    Wednesday  December 25   all day

    Friday     December 27   all day

    Tuesday    December 31   after 14:00 CET
    Wednesday  January 1     all day

TTM and RIS BGP data collection will continue during those days.

TTM measurements with special configurations that had to be set up by us,
will be switched off on the afternoon of the 24th in order to avoid
problems during the long weekend.  Special measurements which you set up
with the WWW interface on the box will continue.

In case of an emergency that requires immediate human intervention and
cannot wait until Monday 30 or Thursday 2, we can be reached by telephone
at +31.6.55861746.  When calling, please take into account that Amsterdam
in in the CET timezone, or GMT-1. Note that the following are not
emergencies:

 * Requests for renumbering of machines or peering sessions,
 * Requests for special measurements,
 * Requests for data files,
 * Missing data files on our www or ftp site.  If a file is missing,
   it will appear on our servers on (approximately) January 2nd.
 * Peering sessions that went down and need to be restarted.

Please send a copy of this mail to any 24/7, NOC or other colleagues that
should be aware of this information.

Season's greetings,

Henk Uijterwaal
