Hello everyone,
INX-ZA operate community-run Internet exchange points, with the management committee elected from the general Internet community. We hold annual elections to elect new members to the management committee for a 2year term. This is your chance to contribute to the management and operations, of these 100% community operated IXPs, to grow a better peering environment for yourselves. Elected persons are natural persons; ie. they do not represent any particular organisation, and they do not have to be from a participating network at any of the INXes, nor from any particular geography. It is expected that volunteers have a legitimate interest in improving the peering landscape.
The terms of reference for INX committee members, is available online at https://www.inx.net.za/display/pub/INX+Committee. Committee member usually meet online once a month, to set policy and provide managerial oversight to the INXs' operations. Committee members may also meet in person, up to twice a year.
