From peter.wehrle at t-online.de Thu Jun 1 10:43:42 2023 From: peter.wehrle at t-online.de (peter.wehrle at t-online.de) Date: Thu, 1 Jun 2023 10:43:42 +0200 Subject: [iot-wg] Summary on our last Session at RIPE 86 in Rotterdam Message-ID: <00c701d99465$2bf710c0$83e53240$@t-online.de> Hello, as you see in the steno we had a quite intensive discussion on the focus of the IoT workgroup at RIPE 86 ? to stay broad but also be specific in applications of IoT. As the new co-chair along with Peter Steinh?user I first like to send a big thank you to all participants of the IoT working group at RIPE-86 joining personally in Rotterdam or online. The IoT Working Group Meeting at RIPE 86 in Rotterdam on 24th May was the last meeting for Sandoche Balkrichenan as chair of the IoT Group. Sandoche relocated back to India and did not apply to renew the term as chair. We are grateful for all the good work and support Sandoche gave as chair to IoT Working Group. As Peter Steinh?users current term as chair is ongoing until RIPE 88, a new candidate for the Co-Chair was required. I, Peter Wehrle saw the opportunity to support the great idea of working groups and to give something back to the very open culture of the RIPE community. I?m 56 years old and have a degree in communication engineering topped up by an MBA. I live and work in Germany, Frankfurt area and works as department leader for a smaller Telecommunication- and Cloud-provider, running the Business Support Applications from CRM to billing, Processes digitization, Project management, Data Security and ISO certifications for data centre operations. IOT kicks in with my hobby as radio amateur and the passion, to melt together old ham amateurs and the current maker scene with all kinds of projects, where IoT is the core for applications around all kind of solutions to optimize energy and resource consumption, meter environmental conditions like weather or humidity on fields to achieve data driven insights. I found a great appreciation from the IoT Working group on this view towards applications of IoT especially in some personal talks after the session. In turn I?m looking forward being better connected to all the professionals in the IoT Working group, who does work in this field and can provide expertise and insights on the latest technology and solutions around IoT. The intention is to foster the discussion between the technical possibilities and the application of IoT - driving the groups take on necessary guidelines for i.e. IoT device security, addressing of devices etc. and to sharpen the mission of the RIPE IoT Working group in connection to other RIPE working groups like IPv6, Open source and so on. Feel free to share any thoughts on it to intensify the activity of the IoT Working group also between RIPE meetings. We are looking forward to this enhanced exchange.
