[regional-russia] RIPE NCC Regional Meeting Moscow 2010 Report

Dear Colleagues,

We want to thank everyone who participated at the RIPE NCC Regional 
Meeting in Moscow last week. More than 380 people from nine different 
countries attended.

A special thank you goes to the local host of this meeting, the 
Coordination Center for TLD RU. In addition, we would like to thank our 
sponsors: Cisco, MSK IX, RIPE NCC, RU Center and Technical Center of the 
Internet.

Thanks also to the Program Committee, a group of volunteers, who put the 
program together.

Short Meeting Report
---------------------
The meeting was a big success, with tutorials, presentations and panel 
sessions on topics including DDoS Attacks, DNS Security (DNSSEC), 
Operations of Networks and Exchange Points, Regional Connectivity and 
Capacity, the Evolution of the Internet and IPv6 Deployment.

During the meeting, it was proposed to further strengthen cooperation 
with the creation of a regional forum in which the region’s Internet 
experts could collaborate on issues unique to the Russian Federation, 
CIS and Eastern Europe. The RIPE NCC offered support and guidance and we 
are looking forward to facilitating this process.

It was great to see so many people from the technical community coming 
together, in highly interactive meeting sessions with many heated 
debates that continued as lively conversations in the hallway. In the 
evenings, everyone was welcome to attend the informal social events.

Managing Director
