PAUL WILSON:

OK. We'll move on with the reports from the SIGs and BoFs that were
held during the week. Xing Li is up first with the Database SIG.

The rest of the reports are coming in the order here - DNS Ops after
that, IPv6, NIR, Policy, IX and Routing in that order, plus some
room for any other reports that might come from, for instance, some
of the BoF sessions. So we'll start with Database.

XING LI:

OK. Good afternoon. This is a brief report. Previous open items -
none.

And there were four presentations. The first one is the housekeeping
one and there is a proposal sent out in APNIC SIG 19 but the proposal
never showed up so it's still pending. And the second one is an
alternative view of the resource certification model, informative,
which is actually different view from the panel's of the PKI
structure, quite interesting. And also an overview of the effects
of privacy laws in Japan, whois registration. And the last one is
the outline of recent changes to the RIPE whois database. They are
discussions and you can find in the homepage.

There is one action item. It's the one for that pending proposal.
As the chair, I will send to the mailing list and ask if there are
any comments. If one month, if there is no feedback, we will close
this pending proposal and, if the others want, they can resend the
proposal.

And observations for the Database SIG. There are no policy proposals
in the previous two SIG meetings. So we encourage people to
participate. And we hope we can still run this SIG. Second, that
the mailing list is quiet. And the third is actually there are new
ideas, which combined with the certificate process and that may be
the right direction.

Thank you very much. Any questions?

(None)

Thank you.
