PW reminded that in the last IETF meeting in Buenos Aires the RIR stated that the implementation plan of the RPKI 0/0 was a RIR matter. PW suggested that for the sake of transparency the RIRs should define a time plan.

JC suggested to request to the ECG after IETF in Berlin to define an implementation plan considering each RIRs timeline. JC added that the timeline should include a communications plan.
