NANOG 72 Meeting Dates
by Betty Burke <betty＠nanog.org> 16 Nov '17

16 Nov '17

The NANOG organization, and I personally, apologize for publishing the incorrect dates for NANOG 72 on our website and in the closing slides of NANOG 69 and NANOG 70. NANOG 72 was originally slated to start the first week of February, 2018. This changed in December 2016 for reasons explained below. Unfortunately, we did not change the NANOG website and closing slides. The website was updated in October 2017 and the closing slides at NANOG 71 showed the correct dates. For this, I apologize to our attendees and members. If you would like to discuss this in more detail, please email us at operations(a)nanog.org. Publication of the February meeting dates were delayed due to the difficulty in finding a venue in a preferred location large enough to host NANOG. The only acceptable venue was available on February 19-21, 2018. We updated several public meeting calendars, but failed to update the NANOG website and closing slides. Once again, please accept my sincere apology for the confusion and difficulty created by this error. I hope to see all of you in Atlanta on February 19th. Respectfully, Betty
