  service for a contained local catchment area.

   Global Nodes provide a baseline degree of proximity to the entire
   Internet. Multiple global nodes are deployed to ensure that the

   or reachability of a single global node.

   Local Nodes provide contained regions of optimisation. Clients within

We did a slightly better job in RFC 4768 (e.g. in such a way, potentially):

   Local-Scope Anycast:  reachability information for the anycast
  Service Address is propagated through a routing system in such a
  way that a particular anycast node is only visible to a subset of
  the whole routing system.

   Local Node:  an Anycast Node providing service using a Local-Scope
  Anycast Address.

   Global-Scope Anycast:  reachability information for the anycast
  Service Address is propagated through a routing system in such a

In the taxonomy I just shared, that makes the origin nodes of B all global

To clarify though, I certainly wasn't trying to suggest that the things I

It's specifically the terms local and global in a DNS anycast context that

Last Call and Draft program for RIPE 68

2014-03-17 Thread Filiz Yilmaz
Dear Colleagues,

A list of currently accepted RIPE 68 presentations is now published at:

https://ripe68.ripe.net/programme/meeting-plan/draft/

There are still few slots remaining for a final RIPE 68 programme and RIPE 
Programme Committee will accept new proposals until 6 April 2014.

This is our last call for you to submit your proposals. 

Kind regards
Filiz Yilmaz
Chair, RIPE Programme Committee

 Dear colleagues,
 
 Please find the CFP for RIPE 68 below or at 
 https://ripe68.ripe.net/submit-topic/cfp/.
 
 The deadline for submissions is 2 March 2014.
 Please also note that speakers do not receive any extra reduction or funding 
 towards the meeting fee at the RIPE Meetings.
 
 Kind regards
 
 Filiz Yilmaz
 RIPE PC Chair

 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 68 will take place from 12 – 16 May 2014 in Warsaw, Poland.
 
 The RIPE Programme Committee (PC) is now seeking content proposals from the 
 RIPE community for the plenary session presentations, BoFs (Birds of a 
 Feather sessions), panels, workshops, tutorials and lightning talks at RIPE 
 68. 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
 
 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.
 
 The RIPE PC accepts proposals for different presentation formats, including 
 plenary session presentations, tutorials, workshops, BoFs (Birds of a Feather 
 sessions) and lightning talks. See the full descriptions of these formats at 
 https://ripe68.ripe.net/submit-topic/presentation-formats/
 
 Presenters who are proposing a panel or BoF are encouraged to include 
 speakers from several (perhaps even competing) companies and/or a neutral 
 facilitator.
 
 In addition to presentations selected in advance for the plenary, the RIPE PC 
 also offers several time slots for “lightning talks”, which are selected 
 immediately before or during the conference.
 
 The following general requirements apply:
 
 - Proposals for plenary session presentations, BoFs, panels, workshops and 
 tutorials must be submitted for full consideration no later than 2 March 
 2014, using the meeting submission system at 
 https://ripe68.ripe.net/submit-topic/guidelines/. Proposals submitted after 
 this date will be considered on a space-available basis.
 
 -  Lightning talks should also be submitted using the meeting submission 
 system (https://ripe68.ripe.net/submit-topic/submission-form/) and can be 
 submitted just days before the RIPE Meeting starts or even during the meeting 
 week. The allocation of lightning talk slots will be announced in short 
 notice – in some cases on the same day but often one day prior to the 
 relevant session.
 
 - Presenters should indicate how much time they will require. 
 See more information on time slot allocations per presentation format at 
 https://ripe68.ripe.net/submit-topic/presentation-formats/
 
 - Proposals for talks 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 
 panelists, presenters and moderators.
 
 - Due to potential technical issues, it is expected that most, if not all, 
 presenters/panelists will be physically present at the RIPE Meeting.
 
 If you have any questions or requests concerning content submissions, please 
 email pc [at] ripe [dot] net.

I used RIPE ATLAS probes to check the SSL certificate over IPv6 (a nice way to 
check reachability)..

You can look through the data to determine where it's not reachable from, but 
it seems to be generally reachable without issue from nearly all the probes.

It was reachable by hand-typed URL, but the machines trying to follow a 
redirect from the FCC site during payment flow failed. Had to be brought back 
online, so once it was determined that turning v6 off was sufficient, that was 
the end if the debugging.
