Below is the Agenda for the Open Source WG Session during RIPE.

One thing not mentioned in the agenda (but will be announced during the Admin section), is that Ondrej

See you all in Rotterdam,

Martin

-----

A. Administrative Matters

B. NGI-Zero: EU-funded framework for supporting FLOSS projects

Niall O'Reilly, Tolerant Networks Ltd

This presentation will alert participants to the EU Commission's New

Generation Internet (NGI), to NGI funding opportunities, and to project

support available from the NGI-Zero coalition led by the NLnet Foundation.

Tolerant Networks Ltd is a partner in NGI-Zero.

C. From Peering Manager features to standalone library

Guillaume Mazoyer, Peering Manager Lead Developer

During the process of writing the integration code for

Peering Manager and IX-API, an opportunity arose to extract the

relevant features from the main code base and create a separate

library. As a result, pyixapi was born, providing a user-friendly and

straightforward interface for interacting with IX-API endpoints.

D. BIRD 2 - Overview and Future Outlook

Ondřej Zajíček, CZ.NIC

Five years ago, we released BIRD 2, the major overhaul of BIRD Internet

Routing Daemon. I will recapitulate recent BIRD development, present new

interesting features, and discuss the future outlook of BIRD development,

including the upcoming multithreaded BIRD 3.

E. Update from Route Server Support Foundation

Niels Raijer, Chairman RSSF

Why RSSF is there, the technological advances in OpenBGPD

and rpki-client and a surprising way in which we received some funding.

F. Lightning Talks

These are short updates on different relevant OpenSource projects.

They should be 5 mins (preferably) with a maximum of 10 mins(if space

allows). No formal submission required ahead of RIPE, but please send

a short message to opensource-wg-chairs@ripe.net by noon on Tuesday

during the RIPE if you want to present an update. Selection of talks

are done on Tuesday afternoon.
