Hi!

Excuse my late comment. I'm catching up on a few mailing lists.

I'd like to start by saying that I support archiving the Action List.

That said, I have a few comments and questions. First, the "last
updated" date is clearly incorrect, as the action numbers were assigned
based on RIPE Meeting numbers, and the last entry is 66.5, which
corresponds to RIPE 66 in October 2013. Second, the list is incomplete.
There were action items after RIPE Meetings 67-71, presented by Nigel
Titley in his updates - most likely until RIPE 72 (1), when Job also did
the first NWI review. This raises the question: what is the purpose of
archiving the list? Do we intend to make it obsolete, with a disclaimer
like "don't even look here, as it's outdated and incomplete and serves
no practical purpose" or do we want to preserve it as a historical
reference? If it's the latter, then in my view, it should be as accurate
and complete as possible. (2) Lastly, it might also make sense to move
the NWI page (3) under the DB-WG section.

Hope that makes sense.

(1) Relevant presentations:

https://ripe71.ripe.net/presentations/139-Action_Points.pdf
https://ripe72.ripe.net/presentations/18-Action_Points.pdf

(2) I'm happy to volunteer to go through the minutes, recordings, and
presentations from RIPE 67-72 and update the list if needed.

Best,
