Nicolas,

 2/ Differences beetween RIPE EOF and EuroNOG

 RIPE EOF is not neutral and depend of RIPE.
 EuroNOG is neutral and don't depend of any organization.

RIPE is a neutral and independent organization, so any of its working
groups are by definition also neutral and independent.


 EuroNOG is open and make easier creation of working groups, on request
 DDoS tracking WG have been created.

Easier than what?  To start a WG in RIPE, all that is required is one
email to the organization to ask for a room for a BoF.


 RIPE EOF don't have a lof of activity.
 EuroNOG is active.

Define active.  RIPE EOF has been meeting 3 times a year for at least the
last 6 years, with a room full of people showing up for every meeting.

Henk (speaking for himself).

NDsoftware does not exist, at least as a company in France. It is *not* 
registered in any French directory of companies (check it out: 
http://www.societe.com/).

Therefore, we can try the following hypothesis:

1) ND software does not exist

2) ND software is a non-profit society, not a company

3) ND software exists in a parallel universe

4) ND software is incorporated in Jersey, Monaco, Virgin Islands or the 
Bahamas, not in France

Meetings are usually organized on the Monday/Tuesday of the RIPE meetings.
Over the last years, focus shifted from technical presentations to
advanced tutorials, though there are plans to reverse that.  Next session
will be May 12-13 in Barcelona, Spain.
