BIND 10 Open Day

The BIND 10 Open Day is a chance for the BIND 10 Team to meet with users and potential users of BIND 10, to find out what they hope to get out of the software.

The RIPE NCC has generously agreed to let us meet in their offices:

I've put up a separate page on getting to the center of Amsterdam from the airport.

We will start at 09:30, and finish by 17:00.

There will be coffee & tea throughout the day, and we'll have an organized lunch. If anyone wants some informal discussions after the day is over we may be thirsty, and Amsterdam is reputed to have many bars, so discussions over drinks at a nearby pub might be best.
