4. CCWG S2 Update

a) ASO Empowered Community Interim Procedures

GV reminded that the legal team prepared a draft document for the NRO EC to review it and make comments.

JC pointed out that the document lack steps on how to engage with the community. JC clarified a recent discussion in the empowered community group where it appears that the supporting organizations don’t need to individually act in order to the empowered community to administratively ratify appointments to the ICANN Board.

JC asked to the NRO EC to review the document sent by the legal team.

New Action Item 170516-02: NRO EC to review legal team document on ASO empowered community interim procedures and send comments to the list.

6. 0/0 implementation timing and communications

PW wanted to confirm a launch date for the 0/0 implementation among the RIR and the global communication plan.

JC agreed that the discussion lead to launch the 0/0 implementation by September 30 but no final agreement was reached.

JC asked MK if the deploy of the 0/0 could be done independently or should be coordinated to be at the same time in all RIRs.

MK confirmed that the could be done independently.

JC asked MK if the relying parties of the RPKI services need to make changes before or wait after the implementation

MK said that, if there are no changes in each RIR TA the changes should be transparent to those relying on the services.

JC suggested that each RIR works in the 3rd quarter time frame to deploy the 0/0 service so all services are implemented by September 30th as the latest.

PW agreed.

OR asked MK about a coordinated test environment among the RIR before the 0/0 deployment.

MK said he would consult the ECG on this.

JC said that the testing environment for the 0/0 deploy may not pay off the effort but agreed that MK consult the ECG on the matter.

New Action Item 170516-04 MK to consult with ECG about the effort to conduct a test environment for the deploy of 0/0 and report back to the NRO EC

In response to AB question, JC suggested to work in two communications efforts for the coming changes in RPKI services.

JC suggested that AB continue working with the CCG on a direction statement to be published in the NRO website. The statement should contain the NRO EC position on having a strong, reliable, stable RPKI, and the approach of the 0/0 doesn’t preclude the commitment to keep working in a single global TA.

In parallel MK and HK would work in a technical detailed announcement in the deployment of the 0/0 service. Both announcement should be coordinated.

New Action Item 1705016-05. HK and MK to work in a technical announcement in preparation to the deployment of 0/0 RPKI service in the 3rd quarter of this year. The announcement should be coordinated with the new RPKI content in the NRO website (action item Action Item 170418-07)

PW asked if there has been any discussion with IANA.

JS said that no formal discussion has taken place.

JC suggested to consult with ECG if there is any technical impact in the case IANA roll back the ASN registry and socialize the idea within the PTI

AB said that members of the RIR could be using the current IANA ASN registry format. AB suggested to make a public consultation about the request to IANA.

JC agreed and requested JS to work a public consumable statement of the RSCG recommendation.

New Action Item 170516-06: MK in coordination with JS to consult with the ECG if there is any technical impact in the roll back of the IANA ASN registry.

New Action Item 170516-07: JS and the RSCG to draft a public announcement requesting IANA to roll back their ASN registry to the 2008 format. The announcement could be used for a RIR community consultation to discard any impact on members using the current IANA ASN registry format.

JS consulted the NRO EC who is the target audience for statistics included in RPKI and transfer logs.
