The NANOG Program Committee solicits talks, works with potential speakers to refine presentations, and reviews proposals for technical accuracy and relevance presented at NANOG meetings to the NANOG audience. The NANOG Program Committee reviews presentation abstracts and selects talks based on applicability to backbone engineering and timeliness of the topic. The group comprises operators, researchers, and industry leaders, appointed by the Board of Directors. You can reach the PC at [email protected].
