27 May '20

Dear colleagues, Yesterday, we hosted an online session with members of the community about the state of the Internet in Southeast Europe. We presented highlights from the RIPE NCC’s Southeast Europe Country Report and used the data from the report to spark discussion around relevant Internet governance issues in the region. Some of the topics included: - The role of NOGs in fostering a healthy Internet - Why IPv6 deployment has stagnated in many countries in Southeast Europe - The role of local IXPs in keeping traffic local The session was not recorded, however, you can find the slides online: https://www.ripe.net/about-us/press-centre/publications/presentations/2020/… And the country report is available on RIPE Labs: https://www.ripe.net/s/seereport We’ll also be hosting two online events for members in Southeast Europe in the coming weeks, including one for our members in Bosnia and Herzegovina on 6 May, and another for our members in Serbia on 20 May.

Southeast Europe Country Report and Online Discussion
by Gergana Petrova 28 Apr '20

28 Apr '20

Dear colleagues, Today we’ve published the latest in our series of country reports, this time shining the spotlight on Southeast Europe rather than focusing on an individual country. This is the fourth such country report that the RIPE NCC has produced as part of an ongoing effort to support Internet development throughout our service region by making our data and insights available to local technical communities and decision makers alike. The report takes stock of the current IPv4 and IPv6 resource holdings in the Southeast European region, looks at the history of development of the Internet industry, and assesses its opportunity for future growth. We also examine the region’s access to the global Domain Name System (DNS), look at how traffic is exchanged within the region, and identify the different paths and operators providing access from the rest of the world. You can find out more and access the report from RIPE Labs: https://www.ripe.net/s/seereport We’d also like to invite you to attend an online session in which we’ll go over the main highlights from the report and have an open discussion about relevant Internet governance issues in Southeast Europe, including IPv6 deployment, IXPs and cybersecurity. The session will take place on *Tuesday, 28 April from 12:00-13:00 UTC*. Please register here before Monday 27 April 12:00 UTC: https://www.ripe.net/s/see-discussion We’d love to hear your feedback about the report. Which types of topics and analyses did you find useful? We hope to see you online next Tuesday! Best regards, Gergana -- Gergana Petrova External Relations RIPE NCC

SEE 9 Postponed Due to COVID-19
by Fergal Cunningham 06 Mar '20

06 Mar '20

Dear colleagues, Following the escalation of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) in Europe and across the world, we’ve decided to postpone SEE 9, which was scheduled to take place from 7-8 April in Ljubljana, Slovenia. This was a difficult decision to make but necessary as the health and well-being of attendees and organising staff remain our top priority. We also feel that the meeting itself would be more useful and enjoyable if it takes place once the current situation has been resolved. We would like to thank everyone involved in the organisation of the event for their support and guidance. We are currently working with all event partners and hope to announce new dates for SEE 9 in the future. If you planned to attend SEE 9 and have made arrangements, please remember to cancel your flights and/or hotel if you will no longer visit Ljubljana. For all RIPE NCC-organised events, we will keep you informed about new developments via email and the RIPE NCC's Coronavirus Update page: https://www.ripe.net/participate/meetings/coronavirus-update Kind regards, Fergal Cunningham Acting Chief Communications Officer RIPE NCC Jan Žorž SEE PC Chairman
