Dear Colleagues,

As you are aware, a very dedicated community group has been meeting to discuss future enhancements to the TR-CPS service. The group met in a face-to-face setting last week and made progress on a number of issues that have been of interest to the community. As an outcome of the meeting, the committee approved an interim report (attached) on the progress with the community and to solicit feedback prior to completion of a final report.  Your feedback to the committee () would be much appreciated. The intent is to continue the committee's work through January with a final report sent to the NAOP-pag in February.

Members of the committee include:

Pat Christian, University of Wisconsin, co-chair

Cas D'Angelo, SOX & Georgia Tech, co-chair

Jeff Bartig, University of Wisconsin

Dan Jordt, University of Washington

John Moore, MCNC

Jorgen Qvist, NORDUnet

Dave Reese, CENIC

Paul Schopis, OARnet

Michael Sinatra, Esnet

In parallel, Internet2 staff are continuing transition discussions with CENIC and are beginning the process of securing peering-coordinator expertise for the transition and beyond. Some opportunities have already presented, however given the criticality of this role, we certainly would welcome additional conversations with any of you about recruiting and/or partnership opportunities for the peering coordinator role. (We will send additional updates on this as it evolves early in the new year.) Please feel free to reach me directly on this issue at .

Many of you are likely wrapping up for a well deserved holiday break. We wish you all the best for a little R&R in the next couple of weeks and look forward to connecting in 2014!

Best,

Rob
