Who else is going to FOSDEM 2018?
by Vesna Manojlovic 03 Feb '18

03 Feb '18

Hi, I've heard from a few people already that they will be at FOSDEM, and I suspect many of the previous participants of the RIPE NCC hackathons will be there too. It would be nice to run into each other, or -- we could try to make that happen? Any recommendations for the sessions or speakers to see/meet? I'll be giving out RIPE Atlas probes... https://atlas.ripe.net/get-involved/community/#!conferences I'll hang out in the Community DevRoom on Saturday, and Decentralised Internet and Privacy devroom on Sunday. Ciao, Vesna

Merging RIPE NCC hackathon lists & still some places for IPv6 event in Copenhagen
by Vesna Manojlovic 19 Sep '17

19 Sep '17

Hi all, in the days before our hackathon Version 6, we are realizing that we have too many hackathon-related-mailing lists, and want to merge them. On one hand, I want to be able to keep in touch with the participants from the previous hackathons (and you with each other); on the other hand, I can understand if you also have too much email & too many lists, and don't want to receive more... So, this is the plan: - in two weeks, I will merge the previous 5 lists into one - I will close the 5 old lists You have two weeks to un-subscribe from the "small list", and then you will also have an opportunity to un-subscribe from the joint list. You can do it yourself, or you can ask me to remove you. If you do nothing, I will take that as a silent consent to stay on the list. We do not use it too much: few times a year, to let you know about the upcoming events. Also, I'll use this opportunity to remind you that we still have a few places available for the next hackahton: https://atlas.ripe.net/hackathon/version6/#!application-form * When: Saturday and Sunday, 4-5 November 2017 * Where: Copenhagen, Denmark. * The topic is: IPv6! * *The application deadline is 10.10.* Find out more in this RIPE Labs article: https://labs.ripe.net/Members/becha/join-the-ripe-ncc-hackathon-version-6 Regards, Vesna Manojlovic Community Builder RIPE NCC
