<font face="Tahoma">Hello all.<br>
<br>
The APRICOT 2026 Organising Committee would like to welcome
everyone to join us in Jakarta, Indonesia, from 4th - 12th
February 2026.<br>
<br>
The APRICOT 2026 PC (Programme Committee) is responsible for the
solicitation and selection of suitable presentations and
tutorial content for the APRICOT 2026 conference (<a
class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://2026.apricot.net/"
moz-do-not-send="true">https://2026.apricot.net/</a>).<br>
<br>
We are now seeking VOLUNTEERS from the community to join the
APRICOT 2026 PC to assist with the development of the programme
for APRICOT 2026.<br>
<br>
Eligible PC candidates must have attended recent APRICOT events,
be active members of their local NOG (Network Operators Group)
in the Asia Pacific region, have broad technical knowledge of
Internet operations, and have good familiarity with the format
of APRICOT. Having constructive opinions and ideas about how the
programme content might be improved is of high value too.<br>
<br>
PC members are expected to work very actively to solicit
content, follow-through with speaker updates and review
submissions for technical merit.<br>
<br>
The PC meets by conference call, weekly in frequency during the
three months prior to APRICOT. While participation in the weekly
calls is not obligatory, active participation in content reviews
is required at all times to help the PC reach consensus. PC
members who are unable to fully participate in the programme
development will be excused from the PC.<br>
<br>
If you are interested in joining the PC and meet the above
eligibility criteria, please send a brief note to "pc-chairs at
apricot.net". The note must include affiliation (if any) and a
brief description about why you would make a good addition to
the PC.<br>
<br>
The PC Chairs will accept nominations received by 17:00hrs UTC+8
on Sunday 7th September 2025, and will announce the new PC
shortly thereafter.<br>
<br>
Many thanks!<br>
<br>
