Dear all,

As the secretariat of the RIPE community, the RIPE NCC has had the privilege of observing and facilitating the evolution of RIPE Meetings over time.

Each decision made, from the selection of venues to the design of the badges to the structuring of the Fellowship programme encapsulates, a deeper reflection of the RIPE community's core values: openness inclusion collaboration and transparency.

Getting this right requires continuous dialogue, adaptability and innovative thinking within our community. 

I reflect on this in a RIPE Labs article which looks back at the past decade of RIPE Meetings: https://labs.ripe.net/author/hisham_ibrahim/reflecting-on-the-past-decade-of-ripe-meetings/

Let's discuss more on this mailing list, at RIPE 88, or on the RIPE NCC Forum:
