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.

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.
