22nd APNIC Open Policy Meeting
4-8 September 2006
Kaohsiung, Taiwan
Dear colleagues
Are you aware that APNIC meetings are changing format? APNIC 22 has an
innovative programme showcasing presentations on operational Internet
issues. Two new types of sessions will be added to the APNIC 22
programme on Wednesday 6 September 2006:
* APOPS (Asia Pacific OPeratorS Forum)
Previously a BoF, APOPS will now showcase Internet operational
content of wide interest to the community. Most of Wednesday's
programme will consist of APOPs sessions.
* Lightning talks
Lightning talks are a chance for the community to discuss Internet
issues and trends that emerge in the weeks before APNIC 22.
Policy proposals will be discussed in the appropriate SIG sessions on
Thursday 7 September 2006. Tutorials, Birds of a Feather (BoF) sessions,
hostmaster consultations, the APNIC Member Meeting (AMM), and social
events will continue to be a part of the APNIC meeting programme.
Programme summary:
Monday 4 September Tutorials
Tuesday 5 September Tutorials
Wednesday 6 September Plenary, APOPS, lightning talks, BoFs
Thursday 7 September SIGs, BoFs
Friday 8 September APNIC Member Meeting
