[apologies for duplicates]

Dear Colleagues,

RIPE Labs 2.0 is now live: http://labs.ripe.net

In the year since its launch, RIPE Labs has grown into a dynamic
resource that allows the RIPE community to present and discuss new
Internet-related tools and ideas. To accommodate the increasing content
load on the site, and based on feedback from users, we've made some
improvements to ensure a better experience for our users.

To promote discussion and sharing of ideas:

- It's now easier to comment on each article or tool
- You no longer need to register to make comments or join discussions
- Registration is only required for contributors of articles or tools

To make it easier to navigate RIPE Labs:

- The search functionality has been upgraded
- A tag cloud shows the most popular topics
- Long-term projects now have dedicated pages with detailed descriptions
and regular updates

Your participation is vital for the continued success of RIPE Labs. If
you have any comments or questions about RIPE Labs, or you'd like to
contribute to the platform, please don't hesitate to contact us at:
labs at ripe.net

Kind Regards,
Mirjam K?hne
