Here in Canada I will be attending the CANARIE Summit (https://www.canarie.ca/canarie-national-summit/ ) Nov 22-23 in Montreal if someone wants to find me there.

I'm not at the ISP Summit in Toronto though -- it's not a traditional venue for my employer (CANARIE) as an NREN.  

I believe I still have a few probes from my large batch, but would like to clarify their current state and that the process to enable them has not changed.

I recall seeing some traffic on the list about issues with the USB RAM and not booting properly. I had to take some corrective action on one I am personally using by swapping in a larger RAM stick.

The question I have is for my remaining probes, do they require any action to be taken before handing them out?

Thanks.

Chris.

Is your event not in the list? Send me details of your event and I will add it to the page ASAP.

Further, are you planning to do anything related to RIPE Atlas, such as presentation, workshop, tutorial or demo? Do you know that we can help you with the following?

- Providing you with our latest content/material.
- Vouchers to give during the workshop/tutorial.
- Additional probes to distribute.
- T-shirts to give away (limited sizing).
- Mention your talk/event from our Twitter account.

Do check out the 'country statistic' widget in RIPEstat and get information such as how many probes are in a country, what are their status and where do we want to improve. Here is Canada as example: <https://stat.ripe.net/CA#tabId=activity>

I look forward to hearing from you.

Warm regards,
