by Steve Feldman 26 Oct '09

26 Oct '09

Thanks again to everyone who attended NANOG 47 in Dearborn, or watched remotely. Arbor Networks and Merit Network were wonderful hosts, and the Program Committee and presenters combined to give us an excellent program. Special thanks also go to the ARIN staff, who worked closely with Merit and the PC to produce a successful week of meetings. A reminder to those of you who participated: please fill out the meeting survey, at http://tinyurl.com/nanog47. We depend on that information to provide you with useful and high-quality meetings. I look forward to seeing everyone again at NANOG 48 on February 21-24, 2010 in Austin, Texas. The call for presentations will be announced soon, and registration will open next week.

If you are interested or know someone else who is, please make a nomination by sending a message to nominations(a)nanog.org. Also, this past Wednesday the new Steering Committee met for the first time to welcome our new members, Sylvie LaPerrière and Duane Wessels and to thank our outgoing members, Chris Morrow and Jared Mauch.
