[44net] Formal notice of my resignation from ARDC Technical Advisory Committee

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 In light of the recent theft from amateur radio, I cannot continue to be part of ARDC. I was a technical committee member for several years, at least since 2014 or so, and while the TAC members wished to accomplish much, not much happened. I will give credit for reverse DNS as we worked to get that delegated to BGP operators properly, and my allocation at 44.98.254.0/24 was the first subnet to have it working. I've recently asked about RPKI, DNSSEC, and even made some noise regarding SWIP. In every talk I've given I've mentioned the resource amateur radio has in 44/8 and how very special it is. Protect the IP space and use it, just as get on and use the bands to protect them. Understand this is likely 50M+ USD for this space paid to ARDC, and has exposed 44net to ARIN control. RDNS seems to have been broken as well. I call for a full public accounting of these monies, and outside public audit of ARDC. Brian Kantor must resign and we must demand a clear ethics policy with self-inurement and cross dealing between organizations prohibited. Best 73s and it was a pleasure helping the community where I could. - -- Bryan Fields, W9CR Former ARDC TAC member 727-409-1194 - Voice http://bryanfields.net
