We will of course open the mic for your questions. You can ask questions on topics like:<br class="">• Why was a certain solution used? <br class="">• How much time does it take to develop? <br class="">• What security issues should you be aware of <br class="">Take this opportunity to learn more about building test labs and share your experiences as well.<br class=""><br class="">Register at:<br class=""><a href="https://meeting-registration.ripe.net/meeting-pub/registration?0&meetingId=a586e974-f9a3-4565-b3c6-e67fb563c0a7" class="">https://meeting-registration.ripe.net/meeting-pub/registration?0&meetingId=a586e974-f9a3-4565-b3c6-e67fb563c0a7</a> <br class=""><br class="">I look forward to seeing you online.<br class=""><br class="">Alastair Strachan<div class="">RIPE NCC</div></body></html>
