Announcing yet another RIPE NCC hackathon: DNS Measurements, 20-21. April 2017, Amsterdam
by Vesna Manojlovic 24 Jan '17

24 Jan '17

Dear previous participants of our hackathon, we are having the fifth one! topic: DNS Measurements dates: Thursday and Friday, 20-21 April 2017 place: Amsterdam *The application deadline is 26 February 2017* https://atlas.ripe.net/hackathon/dns-measurements/#!application-form You already know the procedure & the fun; here are the differences: * this time we still don't have any sponsors confirmed, so there is very little budget for covering travel expenses * it's not in the weekend - it's during working days! * it's not attached to the RIPE meeting * it _might_ be in the _new_ RIPE NCC offices, unless we accept so many people (and get a few sponsors), in which case we will rent a room somewhere close by, still in Amsterdam. * I would like to give preference to those who have not already been to one of our events -- but, OTOH, I'd be happy to see you again... And please spread the word -- I'm still especially looking for more women to join one of our events, to increase the diversity. Regards, Vesna Manojlovic RIPE NCC Community Builder ps Find out more in this RIPE Labs article: https://labs.ripe.net/Members/alun_davies/dns-measurements-hackathon-2017

Dear all, since you have been to our hackathon before, you might have taken part in one of the "Hackerspaces Tour" excursions... I wrote an article that looks back & explains what the hackerspace is, why visit them, and what's the connection between hackers community & RIPE community: https://labs.ripe.net/Members/becha/six-years-of-hackerspaces-tours-during-… Let me know if you have some more things to add - or write a comment under my post :) Cheers, Vesna (greetings from Madrid, from the *new* hackathon, in progress!)

Personally I hope the many wonderful buildings and temples have been spared; also with climbers; travels; locals & anything there. There's probes in Nepal. I'm sure there's some data we have to measure infrastructure status after the earthquake. There's a ripe anchor in Kathmandu. > anchor np-ktm-as45170.anchors.atlas.ripe.net A quick look on my iPhone shows cause and effect. More work is needed. One of the hacklab projects covered mapping outages. This could be a test? Anyway - 02:45 - too late to think more. Someone take it from here.

Tremors were felt (measured 5 on RS) at my hometown, Lucknow [1] (around 500km away from epicentre). Phone lines were disrupted for an hour. DVB-T signals are still disrupted. Internet connectivity is okay — this is from 1 vantage point.
