APRICOT III Feb 16-22 - Preliminary Announcement
[Apologies for the Duplicates]
Asia & Pacific Rim Internet Conference on Operational Technologies
APRICOT III
Manila, Philippines 14-20 February, 1998
Throughout Asia, Internet Service Providers, Backbone & Regional
Networks, Web Hosting Facilities, Firewalls, and Private Intranets, are
being installed at a staggering pace. The organizations responsible are
under tremendous pressure to master the skills and policies necessary to
operate & maintain these increasingly complex systems.
APRICOT's mission is to satisfy this need for information. The week long
summit consists of seminars, workshops, tutorials, conference sessions,
birds-of-a-feather (BOFs), and other forums with the goal of spreading
and sharing the knowledge required to operate the increasingly complex
Asia Pacific Internet topology. APRICOT week is also the week the Asia
Pacific Network Information Center (APNIC) and the Asia & Pacific
Internet Association (APIA) annual membership meetings.
. The First APRICOT was held in Singapore January 1996. It was
attended by over 280 people from 18 different countries, all involved in
delivering Internet Services.
. The Second APRICOT was held in Hong Kong in January 1997 and
included 630 people from 25 countries.
. APRICOT's mission is to address the critical need to develop and
advance the skills and understanding necessary to grow a robust
Internet infrastructure in the Asia-Pacific region.
. APRICOT is not just another 'pure-promotional' Internet conference;
APRICOT brings networking experts together with those who can benefit
most from their expertise.
. The people who attend APRICOT are the real people building the
Internet in the Asia & Pacific region. Many of best Internet engineers
attend APRICOT either to teach, present, or do their own "networking."
