Inactive RIPE Working Groups
EIX Working Group
The EIX working group provided a means for the RIPE Internet
Service Provider (ISP) community to find out about the status
and activities of Internet Exchange Points (IXP) within the
region. It was discontinued at the RIPE 67 Meeting in Athens in
October 2013.
The reasons for closing the WG are all in the archives.
I'm sure they are, but not everyone has the time to trawl through
megabytes of user-unfriendly html discussion lists.
It's been replaced by the Connect working group, which aims to deal
with general interconnection issues rather than issues specific to
european ixps.
Perhaps a note to that effect should be attached to the EIX 'obituary'.
Then we could rapidly direct people to that WG to find people meeting
the OP's requirements who are also engaged with RIPE.
