Hi again, Just a reminder to send through your ideas, or volunteer to present! To give you a more specific idea: one topic we’d like to run a Community VC on is information sharing about “packet layer renewal”. Many of our organisations have gone to the market in recent years to select new network vendors. It would be valuable to hear from you if you have done this: who did you select, why, what process did you run, what testing did you carry out, etc. Please let us know if you’re willing to do a brief presentation to share your experience! (leadershipteam@lists.gna-g.net<mailto:leadershipteam@lists.gna-g.net>) Regards, David --- David Wilde -- CTO | AARNet T. +61 (0)3 9211 8447 | M. +61 (0)410 166 011 | E. david.wilde@aarnet.edu.au<mailto:david.wilde@aarnet.edu.au> From: David Wilde &lt;David.Wilde(a)aarnet.edu.au&gt; Date: Thursday, September 19, 2024 at 4:20 AM To: GNA-G Community &lt;all(a)lists.gna-g.net&gt; Cc: GNA-G Leadership Team &lt;leadershipteam(a)lists.gna-g.net&gt; Subject: [GNA-G All] Upcoming Community VCs - call for presentations Hi all, After a break over the northern hemisphere summer, we’re keen to run a series of Community VCs before the end of the year.
