This is an inauspicious return to conference travel. The #NANOG87 hotel rooms at the Atlanta #Marriott Marquis look like they were designed by someone with a great reputation for interesting spaces, and no actual experience staying in hotels.

No desk. No clothing storage. The sheets don't even fit my bed properly.

It's going to be an awkward week.

Will be in Atlanta, GA, this coming week for #NANOG87(https://www.nanog.org/events/nanog-87/) and #OARC40(https://www.dns-oarc.net/oarc40)

A new bootstrapping list of net/sec ops/research people with Mastodon accounts.

In support of a #NANOG87 lightning talk I hope to give, and in building our social networks, please consider boosting and adding yourself, if appropriate and desirable.

Ever wanted to present at the influential North American Network Operators' Group (NANOG) meeting? #NANOG87 call for presentations is open until January 9.

Perhaps you have some fediverse measurement to share? Or something to say about DNS or BGP? Want to drop some DDoS, IPv6, NTP, or WiFi knowledge? Talk proposals in all areas of networking are welcome. Submissions begin here: https://www.nanog.org/program/call-presentations/

I'm one of the program committee members. Happy to field submission-related questions.
