ION Cape Town, 8 September 2015: The Internet Society is working toward fostering a larger and more engaged network operator community around the IETF and protocol development work. Part of that work was a survey of network operators in 2014 and an Internet-Draft about its results. We’re also interested specifically in bringing more African engineers with operational experience into the IETF, and perhaps even bringing a physical IETF meeting to the continent of Africa within the next few years. We’ll outline some of our recent work and hope to make this an interactive session to learn from the local community how to encourage more IETF participation.

IPv4 addresses have run out globally and regionally in Latin America and the Caribbean. There were only 4.3 billion IPv4 addresses allocated in the early 1980s but the exponential growth of the internet caused exhaustion of free addresses. While IPv4 exhaustion policies have provided a soft landing period for additional allocations, IPv6 adoption is necessary going forward as it provides over 340 trillion trillion trillion unique addresses. Major networks like Google and Facebook already use IPv6 to deliver a portion of their traffic without NAT, and global IPv6 traffic is growing as more networks deploy the new protocol. The transition to IPv6 is inevitable for networks to continue expanding in the future.

Security – Security is in place between the App and the Server. However you do have to think about what security people have in place. For example, locked screens, fingerprints etc.
This extension is pretty new and as Craig has already discussed around the community it does have the backing of a major developer but as always if you want more customisation you will have to pay the developer to do this.
Really do you need this? Maybe not yet, I personally would like some additional permissions to lock to certain user roles rather than a blanket allow if you have CiviCRM backend access. Also would like to see more installations to ensure the longevity of the project before I would say let’s dive in.
First impressions are pretty good though and they have improved massively on first version.
