Here's a few final pieces of information on UKNOF27...
We have another record-busting meeting lined up, with attendance higher than
any UKNOF meeting to date, and a venue with plenty of capacity for everyone.
I'm particularly excited to confirm that we will have three world-class
speakers:
- Mark Townsley from Cisco speaking on "Routing IPv6 in the Homenet"
- John Brzozowski from Comcast to talk about their IPV6 deployment
- Joe Abley from Dyn on challenges of scaling up the DNS
Other highlight talks from a packed agenda include Rob Evans talking about
JANET's new 100Gb/s backbone, a panel on the challenges of building regional
infrastructure, and on delivering video over LTE.
We'll also be running the regular PGP signing session, and another opportunity
to pick up RIPE Atlas probes.
See:

for the full agenda timetable and the slide decks will be available linked from
this page.
