The call for Board members nominations will be from August 20 to October 1 and for committee members from Sept 17 to October 23. We wanted to provide you now with the election process preview. It’s posted at http://www.nanog.org/governance/elections/2012elections/ and we’ll make announcements at every step. Why should you become a NANOG member? One Member = One Voter = One Eligible Candidate Candidate and Voter eligibility are opened to every ‘member in good standing’.

NANOG 55 Survey Highlights and Upcoming NANOG 56/ARIN XXX
by Sylvie LaPerriere 31 Jul '12

31 Jul '12

NANOG Colleagues, NANOG 55 Attendees, We hope you are having a great Summer. We are already hard at work preparing for NANOG 56/ARIN XXX in Dallas. Take a moment now to register for the conference and book your hotel room at http://www.nanog.org/meetings/nanog56/nanog56_registration.html We had 525 registrants in Vancouver last June and I want to share the surveys highlights. The survey participation rate was 14%. We are thankful for your answers as knowing your preferences increases the likelihood of planning future 'awesome' events for you. Highlights: * Your top 3 reasons to attend NANOG are 1) network with colleague 2) the agenda (program) quality and content 3) tutorials. Closely followed by 4) socials, 5) keynotes and 6) location. * You rated the quality of our speakers, the quality of the technical information presented and the technical relevance of topics as either 'excellent' or 'very good'. * You are generally not commenting about the NANOG conference on social media platforms during the event. * 78% of attendees were able to successfully associate to the wireless network on their first attempt * You thought the Westin was great for its location, its setting and its amenities (nice to know for future picks!) * You come to NANOG to meet new people, socially interact with colleagues and learn. * You generally are not a subscriber to our mailing lists: nanog@, nanog-announce@, nanog-futures@ First-Time attendees enjoyed their NANOG experience and are hopeful that they will be able to return to future meetings. Some are even planning to bring along colleagues. Comments for speakers were really appreciated. We shared with those presenting, thereby helping speakers with future presentations and communicating attendees' expectations with respect to presentation content and its delivery. The Food & Beverage (F&B) comments were great. You are generally very pleased with the quality and the variety. We note that your level of satisfaction increases if you are continuously caffeinated or hydrated during the day and if offered plenty of beer/wine/spirits/sodas during the evenings. We took good note of your suggestions and look for them at NANOG 56. Special thanks for embracing (ie not complaining) our 'green options' : favouring large dispensers over individual plastic bottles or cans saves us lots of money and reduces our environmental footprint. For the curious-minded, detailed results are posted at http://www.nanog.org/meetings/nanog55/surveys.html. Consider joining the mailing lists at http://www.nanog.org/mailinglist/ Thanks again to all who attended, presented, and sponsored our return trip to Canada with NANOG 55. It was a great experience and we will not wait another 5 years to return to Canada. We look forward to seeing everyone again at NANOG 56/ARIN XXX! Sincerely, Sylvie -- Sylvie LaPerriere NANOG Board Chair - www.nanog.org
