Dear colleagues,
Consensus has been reached, and the proposals for changes to the following
RIPE Documents have been accepted by the RIPE community:
ripe-632, "IPv4 Address Allocation and Assignment Policies for the RIPE NCC
Service Region"
ripe-452, "Contractual Requirements for Provider Independent Resource Holders
in the RIPE NCC Service Region"
ripe-233, "IPv6 Addresses for Internet Root Servers In The RIPE Region"
ripe-476, "Allocating/Assigning Resources to the RIPE NCC"
These policy changes replace the term "should" with "must" in cases where
the previous wording created unwanted ambiguity in policy documents.
You can find the full proposals at:

http://www.ripe.net/ripe/policies/proposals/2014-11
The new RIPE Documents are called ripe-634, ripe-635, ripe-636 and ripe-637
and are available at:
https://www.ripe.net/ripe/docs/ripe-634
https://www.ripe.net/ripe/docs/ripe-637
https://www.ripe.net/ripe/docs/ripe-636
https://www.ripe.net/ripe/docs/ripe-635
Note: the order of the original documents, proposals and new RIPE Documents
in the lists above all correspond to one another.
These proposals are implemented with immediate effect, as the RIPE NCC's
procedures, tools and documentation are already in line with the policy
understanding that these updates reflect.
Thank you to everyone who provided their input.
Regards,
Marco Schmidt
Policy Development Officer
RIPE NCC
