Dear colleagues, At two recent RIPE NCC Open House sessions, we talked to NOG organisers to find out how NOGs have been keeping active during the course of the pandemic. Refreshingly, this wasn’t just another conversation about COVID. Instead, the sessions got into questions about the purpose of NOGs, how they maintain cohesion, and how organisations like the RIPE NCC can keep lending support. A full report is now available on RIPE Labs: https://labs.ripe.net/author/alun_davies/nogs-on-nogs/ Kind regards, Alun Davies RIPE Labs Editor RIPE NCC
