[lacnog] JANOG's English Page fully renewed

[MAEMURA Akinori]

Dear LACNOG Colleagues,

I hope you remember I talked some about JANOG from the floor
in the previous LACNOG Session in LACNIC XI meeting.  

Japan Network Operators' Group (JANOG) is a forum for network 
operators in Japan and has been active since 1997. JANOG's 
official language is Japanese, with biannual meetings in January 
and July as well as its mailing list janog[at]janog.gr.jp .

JANOG has received numerous requests to make forum discussions 
available to non Japanese speakers, as discussion topics in a 
country with very high penetration ratio of broadband access, 
especially FTTH, would be something different from others and 
it is felt that other NOG groups could benefit if JANOG's 
discussion were more widely shared.

JANOG volunteer members have been working together recently to 
make JANOG content available in English in order that non 
Japanese speakers can share it. This effort is going on through 
Wiki on JANOG Server and available content is still very limited, 
however we think that we have reached the initial stage to have 
it released with a minimum set of content.

We are really delighted to announce that the JANOG English website 
is now available from:

http://www.janog.gr.jp/en/

Please visit this site to see what is going on in JANOG.  Your 
comments are most welcome for us to bring better content to 
English Website.


Regards, 
MAEMURA Akinori, for JANOG i18n Team
