by Erik-Jan Bos 26 Jul '19

26 Jul '19

Dear GNA-G Community: As we heard from Joe Mambretti at the Tallinn GNA-G meeting, and as can be read in the draft notes from the Tallinn meeting, the GRP meeting will take place in San Diego, CA, USA on 17 & 18 September 2019. On the day after, there is an opportunity for GNA-G Working Groups to meet, at the same venue. Through this message, we'd like to hear from the community, and especially the (co-)chairs of GNA-G Working Groups, if they are planning to have a working group meeting on the day after the GRP Workshop. Please reply to the GNA-G Co-chairs not later than on 15 August 2019, so we can inform and work with the local organizers. Thank you and kind regards, David, Dale and Erik-Jan, GNA-G Co-chairs.

FYI: AER (Asiapacific Europe Ring) now active
by Erik-Jan Bos 25 Jul '19

25 Jul '19

Dear All: At the inaugural GNA-G meeting in Tallinn, Estonia, co-located with TNC19 last month, it was already mentioned briefly that a facility similar to ANA (Advanced North Atlantic collaboration) and APR (Asia Pacific Ring) would be formed between Europe and Asia. This is now a fact, FYI. Earlier this week, during APAN48 in Putrajaya, Malaysia, eight NRENs signed the MoU (Memorandum of Understanding) to create *AER* (Asiapacific Europe Ring). These are AARNet (Australia), GÉANT (Europe), NICT (Japan), NII(Japan), NORDUnet (European Nordics), SingAREN (Singapore), SURF (The Netherlands), and TEIN*CC (Asia-Pacific). This ring-shaped facility provides resilient 100 Gbit/s bandwidth for scientists, researchers, educators and students on a path that has only seen 10 Gbit/s or less until now. AER provides a major step forward for Research and Education Networking, and adds to the GREN (Global R&E Network), along the philosophy of the GNA (Global Network Architecture). A number of public statements have been made about this, e.g.: http://www.tein.asia/sub/?mc=6010&idx=2333&a=view http://www.nordu.net/article/fast-and-stable-network-ring-between-europe-an… https://www.nict.go.jp/en/info/topics/2019/07/22-1.html https://www.surf.nl/en/news/fast-and-stable-network-ring-between-asia-and-e… https://blog.geant.org/2019/07/22/aer-secures-resilient-link-backup-between… Kind regards, __ Erik-Jan Bos Policy & Strategy Officer NORDUnet A/S - Kastrup, Denmark Web: https://www.nordu.net/

Welcome to the GNA-G All list (and draft notes from the Tallinn meeting)
by Erik-Jan Bos 16 Jul '19

16 Jul '19

Dear All: You receive this e-mail because you were subscribed to <gna(a)internet2.edu> or to <all(a)glif.is>. As you know, the date specified for merging the GNA Technical WG and the GLIF was 1 July 2019, and the new entity is named the Global Network Advancement Group (GNA-G). All subscribers of both mailing lists are now members of <all(a)lists.gna-g.net>, i.e. this list. If you want to unsubscribe, you can do so yourself or send a mail to the co-chairs to be removed. For those of you who were in Tallinn, Estonia (the location of TNC19 and where we held the inaugural GNA-G meeting), we hope you had safe travels back. The draft notes of the Tallinn GNA-G meeting are added to this mail. Comments welcome, until 15 August 2019 at noon UTC. We, the initial co-chairs of GNA-G, were thrilled by the Tallinn meeting and the energy we experienced in the room. The reports from the GREN Mapping WG and the Virtualization WG were great. It was also good to hear of the pending developments in China. We would like to thank Jim Ghadbane for his inspiring opening remarks and for being available as GNA-G’s Executive Liaison, and we’d like to thank the other executives that were in the room, i.e. Chris Hancock, Inder Monga, René Buch, and Rob Vietzke, for their support. The former co-chair of GLIF, David Wilde, and the former co-chairs of the GNA Technical WG, Dale Finkelson and Erik-Jan Bos, volunteered to start to lead the GNA-G, in order to have continuation, right from the start of the merger. In response to the suggestion on chairing the GNA-G, we heard a number of excellent suggestions. Primary among these was inviting nominations for additional co-chairs. In response to this, we are now asking you to nominate one (or more) individuals to serve as co-chairs. You can nominate yourself, or nominate another person (who of course has to accept). We would suggest checking with a potential nominee to be certain that he/she is indeed willing and able to serve as a GNA-G co-chair. While there are no specific criteria for being a co-chair, it does have a time commitment and a need for international travel. If a nominee has questions about the time or travel commitment, please feel free to contact a current co-chair or the executive sponsor. Please submit your nominations, not later than 15 August 2019 at noon UTC. In this instance, the selection will essentially be by acclaim. When nominations are complete, unless objections are raised, the nominees will be asked to join as co-chairs. At the next general meeting (see below), the process for chair rotation will again be reviewed. We are also thrilled with the ideas for new Working Groups, e.g. in the area of NSI Operations, and the fact that we heard back from several people, both present in the meeting, and not present, that they are available to work on important topics in the Global R&E Network (GREN). As stated at the meeting, a significant measure of success in this activity is the willingness of the community to engage. More information about these new groups will be coming out soon. A number of new GNA-G mailing lists have been established. They are: - <all(a)lists.gna-g.net>: All people interested in GNA-G progress - <co-chairs(a)lists.gna-g.net>: The current co-chairs - <exec-liaison(a)lists.gna-g.net>: Jim Ghadbane (President & CEO, CANARIE) Please note: The <all(a)lists.gna-g.net> list has been populated with all of the membership from the GLIF and GNA mailing lists. Note that this is the entire GLIF membership, not only GLIF Tech. Last, but not least, during the meeting in Tallinn, we agreed that there are three opportunities for Working Groups to meet in the next half year, i.e.: • In September 2019, in San Diego, CA, after the GRP workshop • In December 2019, in New Orleans, LA, during TechEx19 • In March 2020, in Kathmandu, Nepal, during APAN49 (to be confirmed) If you are planning on having a Working Group meeting at any of these events please let the GNA-G Co-chairs know in order that they can assist with planning and notification. The next full GNA-G meeting will take place end of March or early April 2020, in Indianapolis, IN, USA, during the Internet2 Global Summit. Thank you for your continued support. Kind regards, David, Dale, and Erik-Jan, GNA-G Co-chairs Attachment: Draft notes Tallinn GNA-G meeting, 20 June 2019.
