[plug] IPv6 session

[Harry McNally]

Hello

Apologies for creating a new subject and breaking threading when sending from the server. It's complicated (and we need to fix things).

[H: Thanks also for pointers on hosting from a residential FttP (I assume ?). We could use further feedback on that experiance if we are to suggest it for Pi hosting]

Thanks Dean. I am not familiar with how the committee arranges these talks yet but please have a look at the dates on the Events page and let committee know what days you could present. Actually, just post ideas here I think. Other list members may then ask about particular issues and if you can cover them in the talks. 

I'll raise here what I have been thinking about for the talks. I attended Nick's Pi workshop at UCC and regretted not looking at the material on the links provided beforehand. I would have discovered a few wrinkles in the project that would have saved me time for the more interesting aspects.

I am wondering if the talks, when announced, can include some vetted links selected by presenters, committee, or someone like Brad C who has an interest in learning a topic so we can come along with some preliminary knowledge or with questions if the learning stalls or creates further questions.

As Brad pointed out, is it is the practical (implementation) advice that experience brings that I find is where on-line resources sometimes get thinner.

If anyone has an idea for a talk, please consider what on-line resources are useful and from multiple material types including on-line videos. I'd be interested to see if we try this whether other participants find it useful.

All the best
Harry
