Call for Opensource-WG Presentations (RIPE81, Virtual Conference, 27-30 Oct 2020)
by Martin Winter 25 Sep '20

25 Sep '20

The next RIPE Meeting is coming up again - your chance to present about some interesting Open Source The next meeting is (unfortunately) virtual again, so please keep this in mind when submitting the presentations. But it gives you an opportunity to present without having to travel. If you would like to give a presentation during the OpenSource WG session, then please contact us (the WG chairs). In general, each talk is 15-30 mins (depending on how much time is needed). But please keep in mind that we have a reduced slot of only 45mins as we expect less presentations If you have some idea and not sure how/if you should present something then feel free to contact us as well to discuss the idea. For small project updates, we are planning to reserve time again at the end of the WG session. These short 5..10(max) min updates/talks are decided on the day before the WG session on a time/space available base. No need to submit anything for these talks at this time, but if you have an idea, then we welcome to hear about the topic to assist in our planning. Thanks, Martin Winter & Ondrej Filip OpenSource WG Chairs
