Call for presentations for AusNOG 2014
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Swissotel
Sydney
4 & 5 September 2014
Topics
=-=-=-
Internet operations can be a broad topic and the programme committee
will be short-listing presentations in the following focus areas:
* Improving the redundancy/resiliency/sustainability of your network
* Making leaps in service or network availability
* Taking the network operations BCP to the next level
* Using 'offline' communications tools to keep the network working
* How technology is changing network architectures
* Evolution in network architectures and scaling issues
* Analysis of relevant major operational events of the year
This year we will be reintroducing a "Peering Forum". In this part of
the programme we hope to include:
* Peering related talks
* Peering personals from various networks
* IX updates
Additional topics that are of interest to the network operator community
are also welcome at AusNOG 2014. Naturally, presentations of a marketing
nature are not welcome at this technical event.
Notes to presenters
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
Preference will be given to presentations that result in actual
operational outcomes.
Session speakers should be prepared to present for 30 minutes. Keynote
speakers will be expected to present for 45 minutes to 1 hour. Short
presentations of strong operational content are also acceptable.
Once the final slides are submitted, changes will only be permitted
where the presentation requires the most up to date information or data.
By submitting a presentation for consideration in the AusNOG 2014
programme, and if selected the presenter will allow AusNOG to:
* Take photographs of the presentation and presenter
* Record and rebroadcast video and audio of the presentation and
presenter
* Redistribute the presentation slides, audio, video, and photographs
electronically, on the AusNOG website, or otherwise but leaving
all intellectual property in the hands of presenter or rightful
property holder[1].

Hi,
Does anyone from Vodafone who looks after the Clear email servers lurk
about here? I've had an issue going no-where with L1 support for the
past 6 months.. Would greatly appreciate a contact off list.
Cheers, Al
