SEE 2/RIPE NCC Regional Meeting: Call for Presentations
--------------------------------------------------------
Are you an experienced network operator willing to share your expertise
with your peers in South East Europe?
Following the tremendous success of the inaugural South Eastern Europe
(SEE)/RIPE NC Regional Meeting in 2011 in Dubrovnik, we are now planning
to hold a follow-up meeting in the region, this time in Skopje, Macedonia.
These regional meetings offer network engineers and other technical
staff an opportunity to share their knowledge and experience, and to
identify areas for regional cooperation. The meetings are open to anyone
and there is no cost to attend.
The purpose of the meeting is to:
* Encourage the cooperation of operators in the region, enabling them to
exchange information and discuss the issues that affect them
* Enable the RIPE NCC to further support Local Internet Registries
(LIRs) in the region.
* Present the latest developments in the Internet industry.
SEE 2 runs from 22-23 April 2013 in Skopje, Macedonia. The meeting
agenda will consist of plenary sessions, tutorials, hands-on workshops
as well as long coffee breaks, lunches, and evening social events with
plenty of time for attendees to meet each other face-to-face.
The SEE Programme Committee (PC) is currently looking for network
operators and researchers in South East Europe who would like to teach a
technical tutorial or lead a workshop and/or give a technical
presentation during the conference.
Submission topics include (but are not limited to):
* IPv6 (in general)
* BGP and routing
* Network management and monitoring (BSS/OSS/NMS)
* Internet exchanges
* DNS/DNSSEC/IDN
* Policy and regulatory aspects

Please note that marketing/commercial content will not be considered.

content flow of the talk and any key messages.

Guidelines for Submissions
--------------------------
When considering a presentation, workshop or tutorial, remember that the
audience will mainly be comprised of technical network operators and
engineers with varying levels of experience.
Workshops/tutorials are 90-minutes long and should focus on teaching
core skills and basic knowledge.
Conference presentations should address issues that ISPs and network
operators could face over the next 12-18 months in their day-to-day
operations.
Conference presenters should plan for a 20-minute presentation followed
by a 5-minute Q&A period.
----------------------------------
Notification of Accepted Presentations
----------------------------------
The SEE 2 PC will confirm acceptance of your presentation proposal by 25
March 2013. Late submissions that are exceptionally timely or of
critical operational importance will be considered on a case-by-case basis.
Funding and Support
SEE 2 is a not-for-profit event that aims to keep the cost of attending
as low as possible. For this reason, SEE is unable to subsidise the cost
of travel for speakers.
