Dear SwiNOG community,

Registration for SwiNOG #42 is now open!

SwiNOG #42 is a little different. After all, when the number is forty two, doing things the usual way somehow feels wrong!
Instead of our traditional packed one-day format, #42 will be held over two days, giving us a more relaxed, spread-out agenda.
