Call for nominations: Internet Research Task Force (IRTF) Chair iab.org/announcements/call-f… – if you want to apply for my job, now is the time! Happy to discuss what's involved with anyone considering the position.
I signed an open letter to the UN expressing concern around the approach to developing the Global Digital Compact and encouraging renewed commitment to multi-stakeholder Internet governance #OpenInternet

NAT64 is a popular #IPv6 transition mechanism - but what impact is it having on path lengths and latency? Elizabeth Boswell (@UofGlasgow) and colleagues turned to @RIPEAtlas to measure NAT64 usage in the wild: labs.ripe.net/author/elizabe…
Pleased that my PhD student, Elizabeth Boswell, has a post on the RIPE Labs blog today talking about the work she did in her Masters project “Measuring NAT64 Usage in the Wild” labs.ripe.net/author/elizabe…
Summary: not so many RIPE Atlas probes are in networks that use NAT64 as an IPv6 transition mechanism, but she found many interesting misconfigurations in those that do. As a technology, NAT64 seems quite fragile. More details in our preprint on arXiv: arxiv.org/abs/2402.14632

Read the report by @intarchboard Chair Mirja Kühlewind from last month's Internet Engineering Steering Group (IESG) & IAB retreat. These annual gatherings provide opportunities to connect with colleagues and take a high-level view of important issues: ietf.org/blog/iab-and-iesg-r…
Our paper "Errare humanum est: What do RFC Errata say about Internet Standards?" will be presented by @lumisota at IFIP TMA later today – we characterise reported errata on RFCs and study what interventions help reduce problems @Ignactro @Gareth_Tyson

It was a surreal experience to participate in "Lessons learned from 40+ years of Internet" Dagstuhl with folks who spearheaded the Internet!
2.5 days of amazing discussions with many (behind the scenes) war stories!
