Dear friends and colleagues,
This might be of interest to some.
Regards,
Maritza -------- Forwarded Message -------- 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 73 will take place from 24-28 October 2016 in Madrid, Spain. 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 73. See the full descriptions of the different presentation formats, https://ripe73.ripe.net/submit-topic/presentation-formats/. The PC is looking for presentations covering topics of network engineering and operations, including but not limited to: -          IPv6 deployment-          Managing IPv4 scarcity in operations-          Commercial transactions of IPv4 addresses-          Data centre technologies-          Network and DNS operations-          Internet governance and regulatory practices-          Network and routing security-          Content delivery-          Internet peering and mobile data exchange-          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 The following general requirements apply: -          Proposals must be submitted using the meeting submission system, https://ripe73.ripe.net/submit-topic/submission-form/.-          Lightning talks should also be submitted using the meeting submission system (https://ripe73.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.
