Out of curiosity. How was this feedback gathered? I dont recall (again i could be wrong, if so please link me to when/where the poll was) being asked on feedback regarding this. Is this just feedback from physical events ? regards On 5/16/24 5:25 PM, Gert Doering wrote:
The question on RIPE meeting format & sponsorship came up a few times in the past, and the room's feedback was "yes, we want to bring in new people to the community, so please go*out* to places, and*do* subsidize the meeting, so people can afford to come"... personally, I see a virtual RIPE meeting as waste of time. The point is "meet people, have good discussions, build a community" which just doesn't work properly in the virtual format - at least not for me. Maybe I'm just too old and AI will make sure we do not need personal contacts anymore...
