RIPE

adj. mature, fully developed or grown; ready for use; ready for action; prepared for a particular experience; fitting, appropriate

Réseaux IP Européens (RIPE, French for "European IP Networks") is a forum open to all parties with an interest in the technical development of the Internet. The RIPE community’s objective is to ensure that the administrative and technical coordination necessary to maintain and develop the Internet continues. It is not a standardisation organisation like the IETF and doesn't deal with  domain names.
