Dear Taeha,
We have a few comments about the items included in above. We would
like to hear the opinion of all the members regarding these.
1. The membership in this organization ( body, committee - whatever
) should be placed into two categories :
a. Members who represent actual networking organizations (
physically operating networks in this region and who will be directly
affected by any rules, guidelines etc. that are decided upon by the APCCIRN
). Such members should have the voting rights for any major decisions that
are taken by this organization.
b. Other individuals who are interested in the growth and
advancement of networking in this region and who can contribute fruitfully
to the activities of this organization. Such members may be given observer
( advisor ) status. [ Specifically organizations like JCRN in Japan, PNP
and CSU-SB in your membership list, organizations that do not actually
operate any networks in the region ].
2. We feel it is necessary to define in clear terms the area (
or 'region' in above ) that will be covered by the AP-CCIRN. Specifically,
will this area extend to include the North and South American continents -
if not, we see no valid reason to include a representative from BC-Net in
Canada ( unless he (she ) falls into category 1.b. above ).
3. We do not feel it is necessary to specify ( at least at
this stage ) that this organization will meet twice an year. Most of the
members belong to the academic community and everyone perhaps realizes the
funding problems related to such frequent visits. We are not sure if all (
or even most members ) would find it feasible ( or even desirable ) to
travel twice an year to attend the meetings. In our opinion, quite a lot
can be accomplished over the network. Let's use the ample facilities
provided by the Internet to include the opinions of those who may not be
able to attend all the meetings into any decisions of AP-CCIRN.

I must admit that the concept of "voting" is one which I note is
effectively avoided in the CCIRN environment. Bodies such as the CCIRN
have no power of mandate - they have the position of providing
"reasonable advice" - and the APCCIRN is no different in that respect.
When you are in the position of formulating a commonly agreed position
you get into the position where a single negative stance must force a
rethink of the issue to accomodate all views within the forum. If
unanimity cannot be obtained than there is no common position - and the
introduction of voting cannot such such a basic premise of operation of
the APCCIRN - in fact I would offer the view that it acts as a
detrimental factor.
So the APCCIRN is a forum - nothing more - where paritcular issues can
be highlighted and, as appropriate, a common position can be voiced as
a recommendation to the various network entities. However such
recommendations do not carry a power of enforcement in themselves - one
can look at the CCIRN half-circuit funding connection policy as an
immeidate example of a recommendation which is observed more in the
breach than the observance.
To my mind voting is not the answer - the task at hand is to seek
common positions and present them in as palatable as possible a fashion
to the constituent entities. In such an environment where the bodies
survivies only through the common will of the constituents to have such
a forum - and nothing else - then voting and non-voting members appears
to me to be somewhat inappropriate to the task at hand.
cheers,

Dear Geoff,
I agree completely with you that the whole concept of voting or
non-voting members is useless if the AP-CCIRN would just be a 'consultative
forum' without any powers to formulate policies or guidelines for the
networks in the region to follow. Do all the other members hold the same
opinion ?
I personally would like to see the forum laying emphasis on
discussions regarding the advancement of academic networking in the
technologically developing countries of the region, on the longer term
problems of achieving a more balanced flow of information over the Pacific,
promotion of more intra-regional networking etc. etc.
How about the point about defining the region which will be the
focus of discussions in this AP-CCIRN 'forum' ? Don't you feel that we
should limit our discussions to a well defined ( geographical ) area of
reference ?

I agree with the suggestion. A suggestion in the nature of refinement:
Have three catagories- Voting Member(VM), Member or Full Member (M or FM),
and Associate Member(AM).
VM: All those who represent network organizations and/or having
power/ clout to implement guidelines
FM or M: All those individuals and organizations in the REGION
of APCCIRN who volanteer to contribute and subscribe to
the goals and purpose as expressed in the TOR
Note: The suggestion to call them FM to only to remove any
apprehention these people may have about tyeir status
vis-a-vis VM. Make them feel good :-)
AM: Others interested in keeping track of APCCIRN proceeding and have interest in contributing but are outside the region.

I agree. I conveyed this difficulty in Kobe itself. Face-to-face meetings
as a way of doing things will go. And network folks should lead in that
lead. One meeting a year may be a good thing. But those who do not attend
should not be made to feel that they missed out something, considering
that their difficulties are genuine.

I will of course attend the PACCOM meeting as will about 40 other people
(normal count). Anyone else who wants to go is still welcome. However, we're
going to release whatever rooms we have left within two weeks so it's getting

Devendra,
I agree completely with you that the whole concept of voting or
non-voting members is useless if the AP-CCIRN would just be a 'consultative
forum' without any powers to formulate policies or guidelines for the
networks in the region to follow. Do all the other members hold the same
opinion ?
I must admit that I'm drawing a very distinction here between policy
formulation and policy implementation (or enforcement). I draw from the
experience of the CCIRN and the European RARE and US FNC groupings to
come to the conclusion that where you have a body which is effectively
an unfunded voluntary body (and here the CCIRN differs from RARE and
the FNC) then the best you can seek is consensus positions which it is
hoped will make sense to all players. The grouping simply doesn't have
the ability to actually direct any constituent entity to do anything -
particularly when such a direction would cause expenditure of monies or
loss of income.
In such a scenario - which I would contend is the case with the APCCIRN
- "voting members" and "non-voting members" does not appear to be a
totally sensible concept.
I personally would like to see the forum laying emphasis on
discussions regarding the advancement of academic networking in the
technologically developing countries of the region, on the longer term
problems of achieving a more balanced flow of information over the Pacific,
promotion of more intra-regional networking etc. etc.
This is a very very tough objective - and perhaps all the more worthy
considering the degree of difficulty here. I would assume all members
of this mailing list are only too well aware of the diverse elements of
activity within this region, and the engineering, technical, financial
and political constraints which underly these activities. The
requirements of those countries which have good access to advanced
technology and have the financial ability to purchase such technologies
are vastly different from those countries which are grappling with
severe financial constraints within an environment which does not have
a wealth of relevant technical skills.
As a national network operator in one of the more fortunate countries I
readily admit a real and definite obligation to provide what assistance
we can across the entire region - I would also offer the observation
that I would prefer if the national component of such assistance were
part of a recognised international developmental program so that I
could obtain fuinding from the various national developmental and aid
agencies rather than attempting to fund such assistance from what
margins remain a heavily over committed network budget. This latter
observation would be the case for other contries in this region as
well, and does act as a vary real constraint on the level of direct
assistance / developmental activity we can support as a national
academic and research networking entity.
How about the point about defining the region which will be the
focus of discussions in this AP-CCIRN 'forum' ? Don't you feel that we
should limit our discussions to a well defined ( geographical ) area of
reference ?
Perhaps - but with communications tariffs the way they are cultural and
economic outlooks are as much a factor in defining a group such as this
as a strict geographic interpretation - when it is a cheap (if not
cheaper) to throw a link from the Pacific rim to the United States as
compared with a link from (say) Malaysia to Japan (plucking two random
endpoints from the air for the example) then there is a need for very
careful thought about what we want out of an APCCIRN. It is unlikely
that regional infrstructure will come about unless international
tarrifs within the region are dramatically restructured (an unlikely
event in the next 3 - 5 years). As a consequence we are not really
talking about the requirement for internal international infrastructure
within the pacific, western pacific rim and eastern asia. We are
talking about whether there are financial and strategic opportunities
available through acting in concert in achieving commonly definied
objectives. In such a scenario I'm not sure about a strict geographic
intepretation. I would surmise that entities will join if they perceive
economic or strategic advantage in joining - if not then they will do
other things to achieve their individual objectives.

Geoff Huston

Dear folks,
I just returned from the Asia trip. I understand that Taeha Park needs
the feedback by July 7. Hopefully my comments are not too late for
your information. Taeha Park and your fellows are doing a wonderful
job. Keep up the goood work and let me know if I can be of any help.
The following is my quick modifications on the terms.......
--------------------------------------------------------------------
(1) APCCIRN's Purpose
The purpose of the APCCIRN is to coordinate and integrate the regional
networking issues for the Asia-Pacific research and academic community
under the general guideline of the international Internet Society.
*** Reasons for the modification*****
a. The term "all aspects" is too vague and too broad.
b. The term "intercontinental" is not clear and does not serve
the need of APCCIRN's existence.
c. APCCIRN should be under the umbrella of Internet Society, which
in fact is the case at this time.
d. The term "research" does not cover other academic lives of
the members.
(2) APCCIRN's Role
Should change "intercontinental" to "regional" or "inter-regional".
(3) Membership
APCCIRN membership is open to representatives of all national and
international networking organizations in the region and to individuals
of all national and international networking professions in supporting
the purpose and the mission of APCCIRN. All members should utilize their
political and intellectual influence to implement APCCIRN policies and
guidelines within their network environment.
**** Reasons for the modification *****
a. Because of the nature of the APCCIRN and regional politics, it
is not likely that the representatives will have the "authority"
to implement any policies without proper channels.
b. Most of the members will have some political and intellectual
influence in the respective country. Membership should have
open based to recruit some active figures in the region.
(4) Organization
APCCIRN shall elect its Chair with the term of three years. The chair
shall provide secretarial support to the APCCIRN including organizing
meetings and providing membership distribution list. The APCCIRN will
have its annual meeting in the region and several computer conferencing
on the internet each year.
**** REasons for the modification *****
a. it is not practical to have two meetings for APCCIRN. It is
a heavy burden for both the officiers and members to have
too many meetings.
b. One face-to-face and organized meeting is sufficient for our
organization; especailly the email is so easy to accomplish.
c. I do think we can have many smaller conference through e-mail
like to one we are doing now.

i agree with you with Geoff on "voting' except the following;
1. TOR
we need to vote to define the TOR. without the voting, it won't be easy
to come up with the official TOR.
2. Election of Officers like Chair
(same reason as above)
3. Admission of new members
(we may need the voting)
everything else should be based on consensus.
chon
PS: i am doing TOR approval --> member definition --> Chair election now.
naturally, TOR and membrship definition would be revised later as needed.

*** Reasons for the modification*****
c. APCCIRN should be under the umbrella of Internet Society, which

I'm not sure this is indeed the case. I recall Kees Neggers, the
co-chair of the CCIRN being asked about the potential overlap of
activity between the CCIRN and the Internet Society forecast a definite
and distinct role for the CCIRN.
Considering the very broad intended role of the Internet Society and
the particular mandate of the "R" in "*CIRN" then the real question
about the *CIRN structure is whether you are talking about the
deployment of research-related Internet facilities, or whether you are
talking about research collaboration facilities, which happen to use
Internet technology. I would not pretend to have a clear answer here.
From the Internet Soceity viewpoint there has been no move to place
the *CCIRN structure into the Internet Society in terms of a charter or
similar instrument (to my knowledge).

Dear friends,
I think some very constructive comments on the TOR and the membership
have been raised since the request for voting has been issued. I wonder
if it would be appropriate that Kilnam could take up the comments
and refined the TOR so that we could do a simple YES/NO vote, since I
am not sure if I should still be voting on the original one!
Furthermore, I would like to add some of my view too. I support the
use of the word "regional networking" over "international/national networking"
for APPCIRN, since not all the network operators are necessary involved
at national/international/intercontinnental level. Also, if APPCIRN is
to be a consultative body only, then the issues of membership and voting
should not be a problem; and I also doubt if there could be a body that
could enforce funding arrangements. It is also not clear to me what the
relationship between Internet society and CCIRN is. Perhaps I could get
some advice from the more experienced hands.
Best regards,
Nam Ng

As the Terms of Reference is stablized, I would like to freeze TOR, and move
into the member list. Please verify and comment on the list we made with
consultation with many members. Please also refer on the country file, too.
There are several soft areas as follows;
1. Individual Member
Is the current list sufficient? If not, how do we add more?
2. Liaison
I defined it in Associate Member. We may need more such as
SEARCC SIG-Tel.
I would like to finish the member list and the Chair nomination by the end of
July, so that APCCIRN can start working on the real work such as engineering
planning.
We would revisit TOR and the member list later at the second APCCIRN to take
place in the coming winter to update as needed.

Kilnam,
I had reviewed the membership list. I found only three members from
USA, including one from Hawaii. I am willing to bet that other *CIRN
like Europe must have a significant number of US participants. With my
background in Asia region, I would recommend the board to recruit some
more active participants from USA. After all, the internet was originally
developed in USA. APCCIRN should emphasize on technology transfer in
many respects.

I would like to move to the following;
1. International Link/Connection
We will send you what we compiled on international links, please review and
update the content. We would like to have a similar link database to the one
in Europe.
2. Network/
We need the up-to-date network/association description, and we will start from
what appeared in Internet Society Newsletters and INET proceedings. We will
send you what we compiled in a week or so. Please review and comment.

Kilnam,
AARNet wishes to request that Dr Robin Erskine's name be added to the
APCCIRN member list in addition to myself, as a representative
of AARNet.
Dr Erskine is currently a member of the AARNet Board, and, as I
understand the membership document, meets the criteria for membership
of this group.
Many thanks,
Geoff Huston,

Subject: APCCIRN Chair nomination
1992.8.13
The APCCIRN Meeting starting from June in Japan is nearing completion as
most of initial tasks have been solved. I have been working as the acting
chair of APCCIRN so far.
Shall we go through the nomination of the APCCIRN Chair now, or shall we
do it in December during the next APCCIRN meeting. It makes more sense
to have the nomination now before completing the (electronical) meeting so
that the Chair can work on the preparation for the second Meeting in December
as well as other work items. On the other hand, the asynchronous meeting
like this electronical meeting is not particularly suited for the nomination
and/or voting.
Let me know on your idea on this matter.

Hi, Chon,
I think APCCIRN in December, probably at Bangkok, is the place
to elect APCCIRN Chair, because active national reprentative will
meet together and will exchange opinion at there. Email talk
is not good on this particular issue.

We have to finalize the next APCCIRN meeting schedule. The UNESCO Workshop
may not take place as scheduled. Moreover, we cannot use Chulalongkorn
University housing facility as it is fully booked. We have the following
three options.
1. Go ahead as scheduled in Bangkok, Dec. 10-11(at some hotel)
There is Thailand IT Week in the week.
2. Hold the meeting in Seoul in the same week or earlier
This is best for me since I can handle local arrangement, too.
3. Hold the meeting before PNP(Jan. 14-15) in Honolulu, i.e., Jan.12-13
This is good if there are some overlap in participation(& weather).
Let me know which one you CANNOT participate, and which one you prefer.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CANNOT Participate Preference
1. Bangkok, Dec.10-11
(as scheduled)
2. Seoul, Dec.4-5,11-12
3. Honolulu, Jan.12-13

PS: will decide by the end of this week(hopefully). there is CCIRN meeting in
Brussells in Feb.18-19. please let me know if you are available for the
trip. i expect three to five participants from Asia-Pacific.

Subject: UNESCO Workshop
I just received a message from UNESCO-bangkok stating that it will have the
UNESCO Workshop on computer networking in early next year instead of December
1992 as originally scheduled. The tentative date is the first week of February.
This may force us the three similar meetings in the coming months(Dec. 1992 ~
Feb. 1993). I need sometime to resolve the meeting issue, i.e., minimizing
the number of meetings.
The followings are the tentative schedule of the relevant meetings;
IEPG/IETF 15-20 Nov. 1992 Washington, D.C.
APCCIRN 10-11 Dec. 1992 Bangkok
PNP 14-15 Jan. 1993 Honolulu
UNESCO Workshop First Week of Feb.1993(?) Bangkok(?)
CCIRN 18-19 Feb. 1993 Brussels

I agree with Torben's comments. The balance of the comments I have seen on

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
IANA POLICY ON TOP-LEVEL DOMAIN DELEGATION
The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) is responsible for the
overall coordination and management of the Domain Name System, and
especially the delegation of portions of the name space called
top-level domains. Most of these top-level domains are two-letter
country codes taken from the ISO standard 3166.
A central Internet Registry (IR) has been selected and designated to
handled the bulk of the day-to-day administration of the Domain Name
System. Applications for new top-level domains (for example, country
code domains) are handled by the IR with consultation with the IANA.
The central IR is NIC.DDN.MIL.
This memo describes the policy concerns involved when a new top-level
domain is established usually by delegating its management to a
"designated manager" for the top-level domain.
The major concern in selecting a designated manager for a top-level
domain is that it be able to carry out the necessary responsibilities,
and have the ability to do a equitable, just, honest, and competent job.
1) The key requirement from the IANA's point of view is that for each
top-level domain there be a designated manager for supervising that
domain's name space. In the case of top-level domains that are
country codes this means that there is a manager that supervises the
domain names and operates the domain name system in that country.
The manager must, of course, be on the Internet. There must be
Internet Protocol (IP) connectivity to the nameservers and email
connectivity to the management and staff of the manager.
There must be an administrative contact and a technical contact for
each top-level domain. For top-level domains that are country codes
at least the administrative contact must reside in the country
involved.
2) These designated authorities are trustees for the delegated
domain, and have a duty to serve the community.
The designated manager is the trustee of the top-level domain for
both the nation, in the case of a country code, and the global
Internet community.
Concerns about 'rights' and 'ownership' of top-level domains are
inappropriate. It is appropriate to be concerned about
'responsibilities' and 'service' to the community.
3) The designated manager must be equitable to all groups in the
domain that request domain names.
This means that the same rules are applied to all requests, all
requests are processed in a non-discriminatory fashion, and academic
and commercial (and other) users are treated on an equal basis. No
bias shall be shown regarding requests that may come from customers of
some other business related to the manager -- e.g., no preferential
service for customers of a particular data network provider. There
can be no requirement that a particular mail system (or other
application), protocol, or product be used.
There are no requirement on subdomains of top-level domains beyond the
requirements on top-level domains themselves. That is, the
requirements in this memo are applied recursively. In particular, all
subdomains shall be allowed to operate their own domain name servers,
providing in them whatever information the subdomain manager sees fit
(as long as it is true and correct).
4) That significantly interested parties in the domain agree that
the designated manager is the appropriate party.
The IANA tries to have any contending parties reach agreement among
themselves, and generally takes no action to change things unless all
the contending parties agree; only in cases where the designated
manager has substantially mis-behaved would the IANA step in.
However it is appropriate for interested parties to have some voice in
selecting the designated manager.
There are two case where the IANA and the central IR may establish a
new top-level domain and delegate only a portion of it: (1) there are
contending parties that cannot agree, or (2) the applying party may
not be able to represent or serve the whole country. The later case
sometimes arises when a party outside a courtry is trying to be
helpful in getting networking started in a country -- this is sometimes
called a "proxy" DNS service.
(A proposed rule to settle differences that can not be resolved by the
parties themselves in the case of a country code top-level domain is
to refer the matter to the country authority that participated in
ISO-3166 (usually the State Department or Foreign Office). Please
suggest a better rule!)
5) That the designated manager do a satisfactory job of operating
the DNS service for the domain.
That is, the actual management of the assigning of domain names,
delegating subdomains and operating nameservers must be done with
technical competence. This includes keeping the central IR advised of
the status of the domain, responding to requests in a timely manner,
and operating the database with accuracy, robustness, and resilience.
There must be a primary and a secondary nameserver that have IP
connectivity to the Internet and can be easily checked for operational
status and database accuracy by the IR and the IANA.
6) For any transfer of the designated manager trusteeship from one
organization to another, the IANA needs to receive communications from
both the old organization and the new organization that assure the IANA
that the transfer in mutually agreed, and that the new organization
understands its responsibilities.
It is also very helpful for the IANA to receive communications from
other parties that may be concerned or affected by the transfer.

>
>
>Goals
>-----
>
>The goals of the workshop are:
>
> 1. To train a critical mass of trainers/professionals in network
>infrastructure, transport and services to be able to support an
>extension of meaningful networking activities leading to Internet
>connectivity within developing countries represented.
>
> 2. To identify and share individual and institutional contacts as well
>as information sources that will assist the process of development,
>using international connections to and on the Internet.
>
> 3. To build robust professional linkages between all participants in
>the programs so that the mentor-student and peer relationships formed
>during the workshop and conference will remain strong and of continuing
>usefulness well beyond the workshop and conference.
>
> 4. To increase the level of cooperation among existing projects and
>activities for establishing data networks in developing countries.
>
>
>Program
>-------
>
>An intensive program of instruction is planned for each of three program
>tracks:
>
> 1. Basic technical transport training. This training is designed for
>network technicians and technical staff focusing upon the establishment
>and operation of an initial network presence in a country and possibly
>initiating the deployment of a basic national network infrastructure in
>the country. It is anticipated that this initial network presence will
>be upgraded at a later time to support full Internet connectivity.
>
>Participants in the basic technical track should have some hands-on
>experience administering a computer system. Additional experience with
>operating systems, modems, basic communications protocols and related
>topics is highly desirable, but not required. Upon completion,
>participants will be expected to teach these skills to others in their
>country, expanding the breadth of networking knowledge available
>nationally.
>
>Topics covered will include:
>
> - Overview of computer systems, operating systems, and data
> communications
> - Store-and-forward and packet network concepts; alternative
> network development approaches and protocols
> - Modem technology
> - UUCP networking: principles, operation, and management
> - Internet-connected electronic mail services
> - Internet basic structure and services
> - Organizational steps to setting up national nets
>
>Participants will work in small groups to configure a network of store-
>and-forward UUCP mail nodes, and will install electronic mail services
>on the network.
>
> 2. Advanced technical transport training. This training is designed
>for network engineers who may have operational UUCP or FidoNet links
>within their country and/or to other countries and who want to learn
>about establishing and maintaining an IP network. This track will
>teach how to install and operate low cost Internet links within a
>country and between countries. Philosophy and administration will be
>taught as well as host, router, and physical link operation. Upon
>completion, participants will be expected to teach these skills to
>others in their country, expanding the breadth of networking knowledge
>available nationally.
>
>Participants should know basic communications concepts and some
>protocols and should have had experience operating a network node,
>such as FidoNet, UUCP or IP. As most work will be done with DOS and
>routers, participants need have no UNIX experience, but it would be
>helpful. Attendees should be engineering-capable.
>
>Topics covered will include:
>
> - TCP/IP protocols; IP routing principles and capabilities
> - Routers: DOS-based and commercial products
> - The domain naming system; name servers and services
> - Management and debugging of routed networks
> - Issues in multi-protocol environments
> - Functions and operation of a network information center (NIC) and a
> network operations center (NOC)
> - Network administration and security
>
>Participants will engage in extensive hands-on training, setting up a
>group of prototype low-cost IP-based nodes and establishing a network
>with them. In addition, participants will be able to take advantage of
>the workshop's location in Silicon Valley to visit several major
>suppliers of networking hardware and software for technical
>presentations and discussions.
>
> 3. Network navigation and services training. This training is
>designed for network information specialists focusing upon how to use
>connectivity to the Internet to obtain access to specialists, network
>resources, and information in electronic data bases. This group
>includes but is not limited to librarians, development specialists, and
>information specialists within government, higher education, and non-
>governmental organizations (NGOs).
>
>The purpose of the track is to provide participants with the skills to
>discover and exploit the various network services available on the
>Internet worldwide. Upon completion, participants will be expected to
>teach these skills to others in their country, expanding the breadth of
>networking knowledge available nationally.
>
>Participants should have had some hands-on experience using a computer
>system. Additional experience with operating systems, modems, basic
>communications protocols and related topics is highly desirable, but is
>not assumed.
>
>Topics covered will include:
>
> - Development of global data communications and impact upon developing
> countries
> - Personal electronic communication: locating experts and establishing
> effective communications
> - Many-to-many communication: UseNet News
> - Telnet: Remote access to computing systems and information services
> - FTP: Finding and retrieving network-accessible information files
> - Electronic libraries: on-line catalogs, periodicals and databases
> - Internet navigation tools and information search strategies
>
>Participants will engage in extensive hands-on training, accessing and
>using actual Internet resources through Stanford University's computing
>facilities.

APCCIRN Meeting Minutes -- 1993.1.12-13
This document contains minutes of the first official APCCIRN meeting was held
in 1993.1.12-13 at the Hyatt Regency, Waikiki, Honolulu.
The meeting agenda is in Appendix A. The attendees were:
(attendee list)
0. Background
The establishment of APCCIRN was discussed during INET'91 in Copenhagen in
June 1991. Several preliminary meetings were held. The first preliminary
meeting was held during the PACCOM meeting in Honolulu in August 1991, which
elected two acting co-chairs; S. Asano and R. Erskine to hold the first
official APCCIRN meeting. The second preliminary meeting was held during the
CCIRN meeting in Santa Fe, USA in November 1991, which mainly focused on the
IBM proposal for survey of the Asian Pacific region. The third preliminary
meeting was held during the CCIRN meeting in Tokyo in June 1992, which elected
the acting chair, K. Chon to hold the first official meeting. Terms of
Reference for APCCIRN was drafted last summer through networked discussion.
The initial set of documents such as country survey, member lists and the
international link list were developed. (See the APCCIRN Document List in
cosmos.kaist.ac.kr for detail information.)
1. Review of the APCCIRN documents
Terms of Reference(001) and Member List(002) were reviewed, and no corrections
were made. Other documents(005, 007, and 008) were decided to be reviewed in
5. Country/Network/Project Report.
2. Work Items
2.1 Traffic Analysis
Traffic analysis was not discussed due to lack of contribution papers. This
item was postponed to future APCCIRN meetings.
2.2 Internationalization and Localization(I18N/L10N)
The internationalization and localization was discussed in detail.
Unfortunately, J. Hwang who coordinated the item could not attend the meeting.
He submitted the contribution paper. It was decided that J. Murai as well as
J. Hwang to coordinate with cooperation of members from other countries. Some
Japanese effort is archived in JAPAN/mule/* in sh.wide.ad.jp. Other countries
such as Korea and Taiwan support local languages substantially.
2.3 Link/Connection Model
This item was combined with 3.1 GIX. G. Huston made the presentation, and
recommended appropriate link and route coordination between AP Region and USA
including GIX. He suggested the need of operator's forum. It was decided to
recommend his suggestion to CCIRN. See Appendix B for the complete text.
2.4 Funding/Charging Model
The issue was discussed in detail at the last PACCOM meeting in August 1992,
and G. Huston will submit the output document to APCCIRN. There was the
comment in floor that the half circuit policy was unstable, and the "weakest"
pays full circuit cost.
2.5 NIC
The NIC for APCCIRN Region(APNIC) was discussed. The APNIC's scope was defined
as
Resource Registration
Information Provision
NOC Support
NIC Cooperation
It was decided for JNIC(M. Hirabaru and J. Murai) to carry on APNIC experiment
with cooperation of other countries including Australia, Korea and New Zealand.
The scope of the APNIC experiment was defined, and the description was attached
in Appendix C.
3. Discussions for February CCIRN Meeting
3.1 CCIRN v.s. Internet Society (for AP Region)
This item was discussed in detail. There was some concern on relationship
between CCIRN and IEPG as CCIRN does not give tasks to IEPG contrary to the
CCIRN's charter. APCCIRN strongly recommended that CCIRN and IEPG to cooperate
with commercial operators such as inclusion of the commercial operators as
IEPG members. It was recommended that CCIRN and Internet Society to cooperate
more closely. APCCIRN will explore on active cooperation with Internet Society.
3.2 X.500
Paradise Project was explained briefly. Japan and Australia among other
countries cooperate with the project now. Other countries are encouraged to
cooperate. The localization, i.e., local language support was commented in
2.2 I18N/L10N.
4. Election of APCCIRN Officers
The following persons were elected to Chairs:
Kilnam Chon APCCIRN Chair, and
Jun Murai APEPG Chair.
The following persons participate the February CCIRN Meeting;
S. Asano
H. Cho
K. Chon
H. Ishida
J. Murai
5. Country/Network/Project Reports
5.1 Thailand
Thailand established the 9.6 Kbps leased line to UUNET last year. It has the
9.6 Kbps leased line to AIT in Thailand, and expects another leased line to
Changmai University.
5.2 Vietnam
Institute of Informatics in Hanoi had experimental dialup connection to
Karlsruhe University in Germany last fall. K. Chon is following up on the

APPENDIX B: APCCIRN's Position Statement on IEPG
APCCIRN-022
1993.1.13
APCCIRN
The APCCIRN is of the view that the engineering and planning activities
should encompass broad Internet infrastructure issues. It is suggested
to the CCIRN that it should endorse the proposal that the IEPG should include
membership from the commercial provider sector as well as research network
operators.
The APCCIRN has also considered the merits of forming an Internet Operations
Task Force under the auspices of the Internet Society to further develop
proper focus on Internet-wide operational matters, and is of the view that
this activity should be strongly supported by the CCIRN.
