I have no idea. A colleague put me on to II recently as there was a load of
brexit themed stuff showing up.

To be clear, I'm not aware of any UKNOF policy that would prohibit
discussion of NetLdn, MetMcr, or similar groups here. I think most folks
on the list would like to know about such local events.

Just so long as it doesn't turn into North vs South flame wars...

Hi Catalin,

Slough is on the route for the Elizabeth line (Crossrail tube). Don't
worry, rents and traffic will go up soon!

Kind regards,

Hi Tom and all,

Tom is completely right, the use of the word "chapter" is misleading.
NetLdn are not associated with NetMcr but equally fully support them
:)

Richard Patterson and I from the NetLdn team will be at UKNOF next
week, and Richard will also be at the IPv6 round-table. If anyone has
any questions or comments who is also at either of these events,
please come and talk to us or speak to us via the NetLdn mailing list
(https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/netldn) or email directly

on the UKNOF mailing list and respect UKNOF policy.

Kind regards,
James.

As "chapter" implies the two events are in some way related, I should
point out that this is not the case. Both 'organisations' are entirely
separate.

NetMcr's organisers have of course been fully supportive of NetLdn and
we wish their community all the best in emboldening our industry's
social calendar, and wider tech industry reach. :)

[uknof] NetLdn 1

[James Bensley]

Hi All,

A group of keen networkers have banded together to start NetLdn, a
social event in London, for networkers by networkers.

NetLdn was founded following the success of NetMcr. Similar to the
Manchester chapter, we noticed a void in London’s techni-social
calendar. Whilst the majority of ‘meetings’ in London focus on
development, NetLdn focuses specifically on Network Engineers,
Architects, Technicians, or perhaps just anyone interested in the
profession.

These MeetUps aren't for recruitment or hiring, they aren't for buying
or selling products, or promotional activities. This is a purely
social event for likeminded technical people, where you are free and
safe to talk openly. Everyone is welcome to attend and enjoy.

The NetLdn events are going to be held on the second Thursday of each
month with the first meeting this month:

Date: Thursday the 11th of April 2019
Place: 4th Floor, 2 Fitzroy Place, 8 Mortimer St, London, W1T 3NA
Time: We start at 19.00 sharp, arrival is open from 18.30, expect to
finish around 21.00

Full details about the events can be found on our website
(https://netldn.uk/). This is a one-time post to UKNOF as this is
technically off-topic. There is a link to the NetLdn mailing list on
the website. We’re also on Twitter @netldn, we can send out Slack
invites for https://netldn.slack.com/ and you can join the MeetUp
group at https://www.meetup.com/NetLdn/


-- NetLdn1 Agenda --
RSVP is essential: https://www.meetup.com/NetLdn/events/259756046/
We’re limited to 50 attendees for this inaugural meeting but, we will
be moving to a bigger venue from the 2nd meeting onwards.

Talk 2: That time I accidentally started an ISP

Getting 1Gbit/s to the middle of nowhere can be struggle, but also a
lot of fun. Tales of how a small home network got wildly out of hand.

Bio: Nat Morris
Nat has been at Netflix for nearly 4 years and has written many of
their network configuration and automation toolsets from the ground
up. He works from home on a farm in rural Pembrokeshire. Before
Netflix, Nat led the customer engineer team at Cumulus, he also
