by Filiz Yilmaz 08 May '17

08 May '17

Dear colleagues, The RIPE Accountability Task Force has updated the draft scope based on community feedback (below). We are now seeking your approval on the updated version. In this latest vesion, we have changed the second bullet point from: "Document existing RIPE community structures or processes." to "Assemble a list of existing RIPE community structures or processes." This better reflects the stock-taking activity that we intend to perform. With this, we believe that we have addressed the community's concerns, and we would like to get your blessing by the end of RIPE 74. We would like to avoid wordsmithing this any further and are considering this "last call" for comments. Please share any comments or statements of support on this mailing list before Friday, 12 May. We will also be giving a brief update on the scope and work of the task force at RIPE 74 in Tuesday's Plenary at 9am. There will be plenty of time for comments from the floor, so please attend and give us your feedback. Kind regards RIPE Accountability Task Force Chairs Filiz Yilmaz & William Sylvester ==== *Updated Draft Scope* The RIPE Accountability Task Force agreed to: - Review existing RIPE community structures, documentation and processes to evaluate whether they are accountable and in alignment with RIPE values - Assemble a list of existing RIPE community structures or processes - Identify potential gaps where RIPE accountability could be improved or strengthened - Publish recommendations for the RIPE community - Identify areas where communications efforts or materials may be required The scope of the task force is limited to an examination of the RIPE community.

RIPE 74 call for late submissions, LTs, and one tutorial and BoF
by Benno Overeinder 14 Apr '17

14 Apr '17

Dear colleagues, Brief version: The RIPE PC invites submissions for plenary, tutorial, BoF and Lightning Talks. Longer version: As distinct from previous RIPE meetings, the RIPE Programme Committee decided to keep two plenary slots open for so-called “late submission”. These plenary slots gives the community the opportunity to submit presentations that report on recent developments, issues, security incidents, etc., that are relevant to the RIPE audience. Independent from the realisation of late submissions, the PC has received a fair amount of high-quality submissions for the first deadline on March 12th. From these submissions, we have selected 14 presentations to complete the RIPE 74 plenary programme and no second CFP with a deadline in April was required. For the tutorials and BoFs we have one slot for each available: - Monday morning, 2 hour tutorial slot - evening, 1 hour BoF slot Also please consider to submit Lightning Talks for the Monday plenary. During the week of the RIPE meeting we will accept LTs for Tuesday and Friday. Please submit your plenary “late submission”, tutorial or BoF submission via the PC submission system, https://ripe74.ripe.net/submit-topic/submission-form/. The deadline for the submissions is *April 26th*. Kind regards, Benno Overeinder RIPE PC Chair https://ripe74.ripe.net/programme/ripe-pc/ -------------------->>><<<-------------------- Call for Presentations A RIPE Meeting is an open event where Internet Service Providers, network operators and other interested parties get together. Although the meeting is mostly technical, it is also a chance for people to meet and network with others in their field. RIPE 74 will take place from 8-12 May 2017 in Budapest, Hungary. The RIPE Programme Committee (PC) is now seeking content proposals from the RIPE community for the plenary sessions, BoFs (Birds of a Feather sessions), panels, workshops, tutorials and lightning talks at RIPE 74. See the full descriptions of the different presentation formats, https://ripe74.ripe.net/submit-topic/presentation-formats/. Proposals for plenary sessions, BoFs, panels, workshops and tutorials must be submitted for full consideration no later than 26 April 2017. Proposals submitted after this date will be considered depending on the remaining available space in the programme. The PC is looking for presentations covering topics of network engineering and operations, including but not limited to: - IPv6 deployment - Managing IPv4 scarcity - Data centre technologies - Network and DNS operations - Internet governance and regulatory practices - Network and routing security - Content delivery - Internet peering and mobile data exchange - Connected Things (aka. Internet of Things - IoT) Submissions RIPE Meeting attendees are quite sensitive to keeping presentations non-commercial, and product marketing talks are strongly discouraged. Repeated audience feedback shows that the most successful talks focus on operational experience, research results, or case studies. For example, presenters wishing to describe a commercial solution should focus on the underlying technology and not attempt a product demonstration. Presenters should indicate how much time they will require. In general, the time allocated for the different presentation formats is as follows: - Plenary presentations: 20-25 minutes presentation with 5-10 minutes discussion - Tutorials: up to two hours (Monday morning) - Workshops: one hour (during evening sessions) to two hours (Monday morning) - BoFs: approximately one hour - Lightning talks: 10 minutes total for both presentation and any discussion The following general requirements apply: - Proposals must be submitted using the meeting submission system, https://ripe74.ripe.net/submit-topic/submission-form/. - Lightning talks should also be submitted using the meeting submission system (https://ripe74.ripe.net/submit-topic/submission-form/) and can be submitted any time up to and including the meeting week. Allocation of lightning talks will start a few days before the meeting, and will continue throughout the meeting. During the meeting, they may be announced on the day before the talk or even on the same day as the talk. - Lightning talks should also be submitted using the meeting submission system (https://ripe74.ripe.net/submit-topic/submission-form/) and can be submitted any time up to and including the meeting week. The allocation of lightning talks will be announced on short notice, in some cases on the same day but often one day prior to the time slot allocated. - Presenters who propose a panel or BoF are encouraged to include speakers from several (perhaps even competing) companies and/or a neutral facilitator. - All presentation proposals will only be considered by the PC if they contain at least draft presentation slides (slides may be updated later on). For panels, proposals must contain a clear description, as well as the names of invited panellists, presenters and moderators. - Due to potential technical issues, presenters/panellists should be physically present at the RIPE Meeting. If you have any questions or requests concerning content submissions, please email pc [at] ripe [dot] net. -- Benno J. Overeinder NLnet Labs http://www.nlnetlabs.nl/
