Dear IPv6 Enthusiasts,
We are building the agenda for the next meeting, so if you'd like to present at IPv6 WG sessions at RIPE75 or have some ideas/suggestions for the agenda - please contact ipv6-wg-chairs@ripe.net.
IMPORTANT: There is smth unusual about RIPE75 you should be aware of, especially if you are planning to present. Dubai's Department of Tourism and Commerce Marketing (DCTM) have special requirements for events. The more detailed information could be found below in the text format (and the .docx is attached for your reference), but the short summary is: 1) a final list of all speakers at RIPE 75 must be provided to the DCTM one month before the start of the meeting; 2) all speakers (including remote presenters) need to provide a colour copy of their passport and a short bio (min 2000 chars).
Just out of curiosity: Why should a remote presenter provide a passport? That seems to me like a weird requirement to me, and possibly even hard to enforce (unless there's someone watching a video stream and checking if they have a copy of the passport for that person?). And, if the person is not traveling anyway, he/she might not even have a passport in the first place.
