The NRO has announced that it is extending the deadline for individuals in the global Internet community to participate in the questionnaire focused on a proposed principles document that will be used to update the Internet Coordination Policy-2 (ICP-2).
This past 8 October, the Number Resource Organization (NRO), the coordinating body for the global Regional Internet Registries (RIRs), called on individuals in the global Internet community to participate in a questionnaire focused on a proposed principles document that will be used to update the Internet Coordination Policy-2 (ICP-2).
ICP-2, first created in 2001, identifies the criteria for an organization seeking to become a new RIR. In October 2023, the Address Supporting Organization Address Council (ASO AC) was asked by the NRO Executive Council to update the ICP-2.
This proposed principles document is the first major step in the ASO AC’s work of revising ICP-2. It sets forth the core principles that the ASO AC believes should be reflected in the next version of ICP-2. In addition to principles on RIR governance, ecosystem, lifecycle, recognition and operation, the document also provides principles for the potential ‘derecognition’ of an RIR if it fails to adhere to the criteria established.
You may view the proposed principles here: https://www.nro.net/policy/internet-coordination-policy-2/proposed-icp-2-version-2-principles/
At this stage, comments are solicited on the principles themselves, rather than specific amendments to the text of the document. The ASO AC will incorporate the comments received to draft a revised version of the ICP-2 document to present to stakeholders for further feedback.
The questionnaire is located at https://ripe-ncc.typeform.com/icp-2 and will take approximately 7 – 10 minutes to complete. Responses can be submitted in English, French, Spanish and Portuguese, the official working languages of the RIRs. Respondents will see the option to choose one of these languages if their browser is not set to English. In line with the extension announced today, the questionnaire will remain open for input until Friday, 6 December 2024.
