sdnog Community
sdnog started as an idea between Sara Alamin and Hiba Abbas, to create an environment where the technical people in Sudan could co-ordinate, and communicate amongst themselves. Both Sara and Hiba had been participants at other NOG events, and had admired the spirit of participation amongst the technical community, and felt that this was missing in Sudan, and that they could do something to help fix and improve that.
While the idea grew from discussions between them, today sdnog belongs to the Internet community in Sudan. It's made up of participants from the private sector, government and regulatory sectors, educational sectors, as well as many international participants, all working to further the SdNOG goal's of improved communication amongst the Sudanese technical community, both inside, and outside Sudan.
sdnog is divided into two functional units:
- Activities Team: Responsible for organizing all sdnog events, writing reports, and performing the technical work necessary to keep the sdnog infrastructure operational.
- Volunteers: Community members who are interested in assisting with logistics and the organizing process during events.
And, of course, the community, which is largely the good people on our mailing lists 😊
