Re: [apnic-talk] APRICOT 2015 Programme Committee - call for volunteers
Thanks for sharing the announcement.
As I mentioned during the APNIC 38 closing, the Programme Committee really plays a critical role and needs to be maintained with strong and active experts to make sure that our conference content is the best it can be. I do hope you will get plenty of volunteers!
FYI, APNIC will be nominating our Security Specialist Adli Wahid, who organised the successful Security Track at APNIC 38.
He will be very active and I trust a welcome addition to the committee.
All the best,
Paul.
