Just a quick update, it has been 3 weeks since the call for papers. 1. Wednesday SIG Day So far we have not had any interest/offers/plans for the Wednesday which we've previously given over to streamed sessions. If you wish to do something that day please contact us fairly soon. Possibly we might end up having the conference over all 3 days (or perhaps streaming the Wednesday morning only). 2. Sponsorship. We are currently preparing a list of sponsorship options for perspective sponsors. If you are interested in sponsoring NZNOG 2006 ( via Money, Speakers, Goods, Money, Services or Money ) then please contact sponsorship(a)nznog.org. 3. Talks We have had several good talk proposals already and are in process or arranging others. Please make sure you submit proposals before the deadline to have a good chance of getting in. Don't forget you can do a lightning talk if you don't want to do a full one. Or you can do like WAND did this year and split a 1 hour talk slot across several talks by members of your team. Or something else perhaps. Email talks(a)nznog.org . 4. Website We have a initial website up ( http://www.nznog.org ) with some information on 2006 (Thanks Mark) . This site will be expanded/replaced in a few weeks/months but it is there to give the 2006 conference an initial presence. 5. Feedback/Questions. Email any feedback or questions to info(a)nznog.org , or email me directly if you're shy. -- Simon J.
