<font face="Calibri"><span lang="EN-GB">Dear Colleagues,<br>
<br>
<u></u><u></u></span></font>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">After serious consideration
and discussion with some of you and other community members, the
RIPE NCC has
decided to adjust its direct support of ENOG meetings. Starting
in 2018, the
RIPE NCC will co-organise one ENOG meeting per year.<u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">After twelve ENOG Meetings
we feel that
ENOG has not really pulled together Eastern European and Central
Asian
technical communities in a way that was envisaged. ENOG meetings
work very well
in Russia, in Moscow and St. Petersburg in particular and also
in the Ukraine. It
appears that ENOG meetings are not pulling together a sufficient
number of
community members from the various countries at each meeting.
ENOG meetings
held outside of Russia or the Ukraine are populated by
individuals from the
host country and a handful of members from the Russian
community.<u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">The response from the RIPE
NCC member
survey has called for more localised engagement across its
service region. It
is not purely a question of the amount of resources but more a
question of how
we deploy them to benefit the membership and local community
with the greatest
coverage. A re-allocation of resources will allow the RIPE NCC
to increase its
efforts in focused outreach across Eastern Europe and Central
Asia. RIPE NCC
staff </span><span>and
financial resources will
be directed towards diverse activities such as member lunches,
training courses
or country-focused meetings with local content tailored to those
specific
communities. At this time, this formula of engagement has proven
to be
successful. </span><span lang="EN-GB"><u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">The RIPE NCC will continue
to work closely
with the community to guarantee the on going success of the ENOG
meetings. We
believe that with one larger-scale ENOG meeting a year and a
distribution of
other outreach and community activities we will be able to reach
more technical
community members and individuals that would otherwise not have
an opportunity
to come together and interact with each other and the RIPE NCC.
<u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span>I will be
joining the
ENOG PC call later today and would be happy to answer any
questions you may
have. </span><span lang="EN-GB">Please feel welcome to contact
me about this or
any other RIPE NCC outreach activity. I look forward to working
with you all to
hold a successful ENOG meeting in St. Petersburg. <u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">Kind Regards,<u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">Paul Rendek<u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">RIPE NCC<u></u><u></u></span></p>
