Belnet and the Dutch govroam foundation (govroam-NL) have recently agreed to operate jointly with the further development and international cooperation of govroam, and recognise the importance of
A lack of international coordination in the initial phase will jeopardise the common aim to achieve the final goal of having only one international govroam service, based on a common interworking philosophy and following the same standards, procedure and methods.
Recognising the indispensable role of the NREN’s to support the introduction of govroam in their home countries, it should be kept in mind that govroam is aimed at a different target group and will only be successful if the services are accepted as specific services for the public sector and if the services fit well in the specific organisational structures, the customs, the working methods and the culture and traditions of this sector. The position of individual NRENs regarding govroam is likely to differ greatly depending on the remit and funding structure in each national context.
To development one international govroam service;
To establish compliance, interoperability and governance development for govroam;
To allow per territory deployment via non-profit operators (and NREN crossover);
To support close co-operation with the NREN/GÉANT community;
To define the meaning of “public sector” as a target group;
