The main reason why that material wasn't submitted for consideration to NZNOG is because it didn't exist or it wasn't ready by the call for papers deadline, which was October 20th.
Whatever happened, I think the programme looks great. If I had known about it in advance (by which I mean if I had been paying attention properly) I might even have been able to wrangle travel budget to come for both events, a decision that surely would have had nothing to do with the amount of snow I have to deal with on a daily basis and my tremendous yearning for actual espresso made by people who know what they are doing. I'd love to see a research day attached to a future NZNOG, which could always be organised separately from the main sessions if that makes things like CFP deadlines easier to align. Getting operators and researchers in the same bar^Wroom is rarely ever a waste of time, in my opinion. The technical team at NZRS has really become very impressive, and it's great to see the intersection of real operations and data analytics coming together like this. Joe
