Dear all,
Thanks everybody for attending SwiNOG #17, I hope you consider it a successful gathering like me.
Unfortunately the people from Pingsta couldn't make it to Berne, we got the following email from Peter, CEO of Pingsta:
-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: Re: [swinog-core] SwiNOG-17 - Pingsta Team Stuck in Paris en Route Bern Datum: Wed, 22 Oct 2008 03:05:20 -0700 (PDT) Von: Peter Alfred-Adekeye
Dear Paschal, Fredy, Nicole & Michel,
Due to circumstances beyond our control, we are stuck in Paris en route Bern and unless a miracle happens, we would most likely not be able to get to Bern on time today. As such, would it be possible to deliver my speech over skype video instead? If no, I guess we may have to reschedule the Pingsta presentation to SwiNOG 18 or 19?
Once again, please accept our sincere apologies for the rather short notice. In the meantime, please feel free to give away the Pingsta T-shrts and wish the entire SwiNOG team and participants well for us.
Danke Peter :(
Peter Alfred-Adekeye CEO, Pingsta
Peter: thanks for the explanation, we have been a bit surprised and disapointed that you couldn't make it - unfortunately your mail was read only after the gathering ... we enjoyed the early beer and ignored waiting emails ;-) ... nevermind, packets sometimes arrive with latency, get lost or show up jittered. The Pingsta t-shirts in fact made it right on time to Berne and nevertheless got distributed to the crowd ... many thanks!
We are happy to reserve a slot in the upcoming SwiNOG #18 in Spring 2009, but at this time we don't have a scheduled date. Please make sure that you are subscribed to the SwiNOG list that you don't miss the announcement.
Best regards ... until SwiNOG #18!
Fredy Künzler SwiNOG Core Team
