Re: NOGUA - Network Operators Group of Ukraine
by Frederic Taes Feb. 14, 2026

Feb. 14, 2026

Dear Olena, Thank you for your kind message with highly interesting content. From what I've seen, it's however the first message from you in this EURALO distribution list (at least since August 2025), so if you have submitted something, it was not received. :-( Now well. :-) ALS'es are in the center of our EURALO community, that's why we have started a new initiative, "/ALS in the spotlight/", during each EURALO Monthly Member Meeting (MMM). Our next EURALO MMM is next week, a possible candidate was ISOC Català, however not confirmed yet (I was not able to reach them, can be a next time). That's why I'd like to invite you to present your ALS, /The Ukrainian Internet Association/. You would have 12 minutes for a presentation, then people may raise questions: interactivity & friendly community spirit. :-) For practical arrangement, feel free to contact me directly by email with our Secretary (Natalia) and ICANN At-Large staff in copy as well. And if anyone has a topic for next MMM Tuesday 17/2 at 6pm UTC, it's the same. I'd like also to invite new individuals to present themselves and the ICANN related topics they are managing (as Maciek Piasecki last time). Best regards, Warm welcome again to all our ALS'es and members, Frederic.
