Hello all.

The APRICOT 2026 Organising Committee would like to welcome everyone to join us in Jakarta, Indonesia, from 5th - 12th February 2026.

The APRICOT 2026 PC (Programme Committee) is responsible for the solicitation and selection of suitable presentations and tutorial content for the APRICOT 2026 conference (https://2026.apricot.net/).

We are now seeking VOLUNTEERS from the community to join the APRICOT 2026 PC to assist with the development of the programme for APRICOT 2026.

Eligible PC candidates must have attended recent APRICOT events, be active members of their local NOG (Network Operators Group) in the Asia Pacific region, have broad technical knowledge of Internet operations, and have good familiarity with the format of APRICOT. Having constructive opinions and ideas about how the programme content might be improved is of high value too.

PC members are expected to work very actively to solicit content, follow-through with speaker updates and review submissions for technical merit.

The PC meets by conference call, weekly in frequency during the three months prior to APRICOT. While participation in the weekly calls is not obligatory, active participation in content reviews is required at all times to help the PC reach consensus. PC members who are unable to fully participate in the programme development will be excused from the PC.

If you are interested in joining the PC and meet the above eligibility criteria, please send a brief note to "pc-chairs at apricot.net". The note must include affiliation (if any) and a brief description about why you would make a good addition to the PC.

The PC Chairs will accept nominations received by 17:00hrs UTC+8 on Sunday 7th September 2025, and will announce the new PC shortly thereafter.

Many thanks!

Mark Tinka, Achie Atienza & Mark Duffell APRICOT 2026 Programme Committee Chairs
