Re: N91 Women mixer on Sunday?

Re: Why are paper LOAs still used?

2024-02-26 Thread Ren Provo
Most important parts on the LOA are the explicit ASN, the name to be found
in the cross-connect order portal and local contact data.  Contractors need
that.

Global networks rarely have a contact appropriate for provisioning in a
public facing database.

 rolled up while we were chatting and told me he had a call around the block 
 for the same thing.  They've been taking complaints about this for months and 
 are as tired of it as we are.  I assured them I was more tired of it, given

 I can understand the age criteria if the goal is to avoid half the usual

 sure I agree with it, though -- I think there are better gating mechanisms
 (and as an industry, we are unusual in that the average age of those who
 deserve recognition is low).

 Perhaps a better approach would be for the bylaws to open the doors to a
 deliberately-restricted number of new fellows every year, with some
 possibility for variance as approved by the board.

 The other detail that might be nice to include is a description of who gets
 to judge worthiness for fellowship, since the board may well find it less
 stressful to off-load that decision (or at least the job of producing
 recommendations) to people who are not on the board. Being able to avoid
 accusations of cronyism seems useful.

 I like the idea of fellowships, though. It's nice for a community to be
 able to recognise outstanding contributions by its members.

Re: [Nanog-futures] My take on the transition

2010-04-19 Thread Ren Provo
Well said Dan.  A review of the transition announcement at
http://blog.internetgovernance.org/blog also noted this is yet
another step in the continuing formalization of Internet governance
institutions.  RIPE, APRICOT, ARIN, ICANN, etc. have all faced
similar junctures over time.  I commend you, Dave and the Steves,
Feldman has certainly been a great source of continuity and reasoned
recommendations, for considering next steps beyond the 2005
restructuring.

The next SC election is not until the October meeting.  I encourage
folks to consider volunteering to lead NANOG into the next ten
year-planning phase.  We have roughly two months to debate, ponder and
reach out to leaders before gathering in San Francisco for the June
meeting.  Please speak up at the community meeting and volunteer if
you are interested and able to participate for a two year term.

Please also consider sponsoring breaks and hosting future NANOG
meetings.  Comcast would still like to host the joint NANOG-ARIN
meeting in October 2011 and we'll work with Merit, or other parties,
to make that happen.  Cheers, -ren


2010/4/18 Daniel Golding dgold...@gmail.com:

 I may be able to offer some clarity on the transition. In the interest of
 full disclosure, I was one of a number of folks who advised the SC after the
 decision had been made. I did not provide any input into the decision to
 separate, one way or another. Once informed of it, my first reaction was,
 like many others: its about time.

 When the current NANOG charter was put it place, 5 years ago, it was in
 response to a lack of governance of NANOG by the constituency. Instead,
 Merit imposed direction through a succession of program managers, some of
 whom were quite capable and pleasant (Craig, et al), and some who were not
 (Susan Harris). At that time, the actions of Merit's program manager for
 NANOG has all but broken the organization. The decision was made to create a
 steering committee, who would select volunteers for other tasks, such as the
 PC, communications committee, and later, the marketing committee. As time
 went by, volunteers took greater charge of NANOG's affairs, but there will
 still several red lines: Merit, of course, controlled the selection of paid
 staff, and also controlled conference venue selection, dates, and other
 important details like the number of events per year. Efforts by successive
 SC's to impact some of these areas were met with frustration, from what I
 understand.

 At the time of the original Charter process, one of the options was to split
 off and form a completely separate organization. For many of us, it was the
 desired option, but we all knew that we simply didn't have the
 infrastructure in place at the time.

 So, why now? Why split NANOG from Merit? I don't know what moved each member
 of the SC to vote as they did, but I have some good guesses based on my
 conversations with each of them. I can't speak for them, but here's my
 conception:

 1) There have been some serious issues with paid staff. Just as when we had
 some very bad Merit staff in place, without recourse, we finally got some
 outstanding staff. And then, we got new staff. The outstanding staff? Fired.
 Why? None of our business. This was and is totally within Merit's rights -
 they are paying folks and they get to decide their employment status.
 However, that may not be the best path for the NANOG organization.

 2) Scheduling conferences has been sometimes difficult because Merit has its
 own calendar which can conflict with NANOG's priorities.

 3) Merit has owned the conference and venue selection part of the
 equation, which is sometimes troubling, as some of the choices have not been
 good fits for our constituency. Again, this is their right - they have
 assumed massive contractual liability. It would be improper for NANOG to
 tell Merit well yes, you have all of this financial liability, but we're
 going to tell you what to do.

 4) Number of conferences a year - many members of the NANOG constituency
 have talked (for at least 5 years) about changing the number of conferences.
 This is worth a good public discussion and vote, in my opinion.
 Unfortunately, because of their staffing situation, Merit wasn't open to the
 idea. Again, Merit has staff to pay and they need a certain financial
 situation to make that happen.

 These are some examples. I'm sure there have been additional issues that
 only the SC has been party to. The key here is that Merit hasn't done
 anything wrong: they simply have different priorities from NANOG and must
 act in their own best interest. They are obligated to do so in order to obey
 their bylaws and fulfill their mission to their constituency. But there's
 the rub: Merit's constituency is NOT NANOG and never has been. They have a
 different (and worthy, might I add) mission, that is divergent from ours. I
 think Merit gets great credit for the work they've done with us, but there
 are places they can't and shouldn't go.

2009-06-23 Thread Ren Provo
One point of clarity here.  Lightning talks are scheduled in a more spur of
the moment fashion than the traditional submission process for general
sessions.  We often schedule lightning talks around a topic with potential
to run short if QA isn't significant or we have a 15 minute gap before a
break.  Unfortunately that means dates, or times, have the potential to
shift and flexibility is required by the party presenting.  Randy was
offered an alternative as soon as it was discovered the original time slot
on Monday was not going to prove viable.  Options later in the meeting were
not chosen by Randy due to his schedule constraints.  If a specific date is
required on the NANOG agenda please consider submitting a presentation well
in advance of posted deadlines for the general sessions.  The NANOG PC does
consider comments made in the tool at http://pc.nanog.org when scheduling
the agenda.  Short duration presentations have been accepted well in advance
of the meeting for about a year now and we welcome interesting topics, much
like Randy details below.  We hope to see Randy back up at the microphone on

[NANOG-announce] Reminder - NANOG46 registration fees - $525 = $600 on Monday

Hi folks,

Just a few reminders -

The registration fee for NANOG46 is set to go up from US$525 to US$600
on Monday.   https://nanog.merit.edu/registration/

The general program is full at this time.  Lightning talks are being
accepted at http://pc.nanog.org.  Three lightning talks will be
selected next Tuesday for presentation on Monday the 15th of June.

http://nanog46.comcast.net offers suggestions for site-seeing, food
and transport.  Some have asked what is the best way to get to the
Loews Hotel from the Philadelphia Airport.  Without a doubt the train
is the best bang for your $7.  Follow the signs when baggage claim,
ground transportation and exit are mentioned.  You can purchase the
ticket on the train.  Market East is the exit and the hotel is across
the street from the Hard Rock at the corner of 12th  Market.

See you in about a week!  -ren

 That's certainly one way to look at this, and I'm just as unhappy about how 
 long this has taken as you. On the other hand, it has been argued that these 
 issues are outside the scope of the IETF in the first place, as it's just 
 application of already established protocols, not developing something new. 
 So another way to look at it is that at least the IETF is finally doing 
 something because so far, nobody else has. What would have helped here is 
 more push in this direction.

 If the IETF is talking future and developers are also talking future, us 
 little guys that design, build, and maintain the networks can't really do 
 much. I so hope that vendors get sick of it and just make up their own 
 proprietary methods of doing things. Let the IETF catch up later on.

 People who run networks can do a lot: believe it or not, the IETF really 
 wants input from network operators, especially in the early phases of 
 protocol development when the requirements are established.

 Proprietary methods duking it out in the market place is nice for stuff that 
 happens inside one box or at least within one administrative domain, but it 
 would be a nightmare in broadband deployment where I want my Windows box to 
 talk to my Apple wifi base station and my Motorola cable modem to the ISP's

Hi folks,

NANOG46 is only a few months away and I hear many are getting their ducks in
a row to participate.

We, the Program Committee, would like to remind all who have submitted
abstracts at http://pc.nanog.org that the time has come to get your
presentation materials uploaded.  For those of you still considering
submitting presentations it is not too late to request a BOF, tutorial,
track, or general session slot.  Lightning talk submissions will be welcomed
in May.

Shifting gears to represent the host, Comcast, I would encourage folks to
consider exploring Philly either before or after NANOG46, which runs 14-17
June.  http://nanog46.comcast.net includes links for sightseeing,
socializing and general transportation guidance.  This is a work in
progress, yes it will be IPv6 ready shortly, and if folks have
recommendations for inclusion please do email me directly.

Amtrak is running a special until July (must purchase by 12-Jun-09) which
can significantly reduce costs, a bonus in this economy.  Go to
http://www.amtrak.com and click on 'Hot Deals' for the lower fares on Acela
Express.  Washington, DC to Philly is only $73 and you get to keep your
shoes on!

Philly is a walking city and there is no need to rent a car.  Whether you
arrive by Amtrak or airplane consider using the SEPTA Rail trains to take
you to the conference hotel.  Market East would be the right stop to exit,
also known as Convention Center.  Follow the signs for the Hard Rock Cafe
and you'll spot the Loews Hotel across the street.  Of course if you really
want to explore Philly above ground take the Segway tour -

Hotel reservations for the Loews can be made at
http://www.phlgroupbooking.com/NANOG/  The NANOG Group Rate is $199 (plus

 Based on what I'm seeing, someone out there has to be seeing similar
 behavior. Anybody? Bueller?

We consider the surveys, in addition to mailing list and hallway
discussions.

A rough cut from SJC was made available during the NANOG PC call this week
but should be posted soon for NANOG42.

 I think it would be remiss of the pc to not review the status of
 program elements. That would be an abrogation of the responsibility
 invested the pc by the charter.

 Further I believe that PC review of a popular and successful program
 element would be with the goal of helping it grow.


 Can we see the procedure that you're going to make up to do this first?

On behalf of the NANOG PC:

Nothing has been submitted in the NANOG tool and nothing has been declined.

The survey results from NANOG42 this week have not been made available to
the PC yet.

We would like to review community feedback on this topic.

Hallway discussions this past week in San Jose suggest some would like to
see a more diverse selection of topics at the very least.
Bill was asked on Wednesday not to make commitments until we, the NANOG PC,
are able to review feedback and perhaps expand the cramped format into a
track.

Thanks, -Ren Provo, NANOG Program Committee, Vice-Chair

  Given that the pc last met on tuesday at lunch, I think the minutes
  when
  released will prove to be a poor source the sort information you're
  looking for.

 Let's stop dancing around the issue.  There was discussion regarding
 the Peering BoF amongst the SC  PC.  There is no reason to hide this
 fact - just the opposite.  And there were at least some provisional
 outcomes from those discussions.  I am unclear on why those decisions
 are not being announced to the community.

 The question is where we stand in the process.

 If the PC does not have an official stance, then we should all stop
 speculating until there is an official stance or (hopefully) an
 official request for input from the community.

 If the PC has an official stance, then the community needs to hear it
 ASAP.

 Either way, gossiping on a mailing list is not the right way.  We had
 a revolution, let's follow our own rules.  As Randy like to proclaim
 every 14 ms, let's have some transparency.  What was said, why was it
 said, and what decisions were made?

 SC / PC members, please step up, so we can all go back to arguing over
 leaking deaggs. :)

Re: [Nanog-futures] Submitted presentation request...

2008-01-14 Thread Ren Provo
Hi Paul, Randy  NANOG-Futures,

We have a pretty full agenda this time and have received 5-10
additional presentations since the PC call last week.  Given there are
hosted events each night it will be difficult to expand the agenda and
open up new slots for all the good presentations.  We may need to ask
folks to trim their presentations down more towards the 10-20 minute
range in hopes of allowing as many as possible.  Sorry Paul but this
is a timing constraint more than anything else.  Cheers, -Ren on
behalf of the PC

 You may instead submit the presentation information and draft slides in

 that should probably work

Re: [Nanog-futures] Get those presenations in for NANOG42 please

2007-12-04 Thread Ren Provo
The most interesting part of my attempt to spark participation in
future meetings is that Merit reminded me of a mailing list I hadn't
given any thought to at all - NANOG Announce.  Perhaps that is where
the plea for assistance should have been distributed.  I didn't post
it on the main list to prevent a thirty-man thread about how it
wouldn't fit into a switch, router, or electrical outlet in an
exchange point.  Meeting preparation seemed to be more futures and
less operations focused.  I just wanted to give an opportunity for
those with good intent to make the deadline.  Period.

Cheers, -Ren Provo, Program Committee

   Why is that?
 
  First, it was a post to -futures; whether or not it was
  off-topic for
  the main list is completely beside the point.  Even if it
  was on the
  main list though (and frankly, I think it SHOULD HAVE been
  posted to
  the main list), this is a CFP for *our own conference*.
  How on earth
  could it be not relevant to the main list?
 
  Please do us all a favor and stop undermining the
  credibility of your
  colleagues on the MLC with this tripe.  Looking for
  opportunities to
  twist the words of the AUP does not serve anyone's
  interests.

 I think Marty was asking why it was posted to -futures rather than to the 
 main list, with the implication that it would have been on-topic there, and 
 would certainly reach a wider audience.

[Nanog-futures] Get those presenations in for NANOG42 please

2007-12-03 Thread Ren Provo
Hi folks,

This is a reminder to submit presentations for NANOG42 in San Jose, CA
to be held February 2008.  Quality abstracts have been arriving over
the past month.  A few people promised to send along presentations in
December.  If anyone has a work in progress to submit please do so
now.  The program committee will meet this week to pull together the
rough draft of the agenda for NANOG42.  We have confirmed a keynote
speaker and several interesting panels are on the schedule already.
We have some flexibility for tutorials on Sunday and a few general
assembly speaker slots at this point.  There will be blocks for
lightning talks each day and you may submit presentations in advance
of February.  This is a good thing based on survey info.   Our goal is
to set forth a solid agenda for folks to utilize when mulling travel
requests this month.

http://www.nanog.org/presentations.html is the best location to review
for complete submission guidelines.

Many thanks in advance!
-Ren Provo, Vice-Chair, NANOG Program Committee
