<div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail-moz-cite-prefix">Dear Jim, Thank you for sharing your suggestions. I think: </div> <blockquote type="cite"> <pre>1) Interaction with SDOs and industry fora How could/should the WG engage with these? Do we want updates from (say) AIOTI, IETF, ETSI and so on? Are any members of the WG involved in the IoT work at these sorts of organisations?</pre> </blockquote> ===>> It is necessary to collaborate with the other WGs in the other Institutes and Organizations. I'm volunteer to do this, if no one exists. <blockquote type="cite"> <pre>2) Liaison with government/regulators What is and isn’t appropriate here?</pre> </blockquote> ===>> I'm agree. I can establish and pursue the necessary communication with the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology of Iran and the regulator and also ICT Guild Organization (consist of more that 10000 companies in the field of ICT) in Iran to receive their needs and determine the points of interest for cooperating with this kind of working groups. <blockquote type="cite"> <pre>4) Academia We had a few IoT themed presentations at RIPE75 from academics. Does the WG want more (or less) of that sort of thing? What’s the best way to collaborate with academia and what does the WG want to get from that?</pre> </blockquote> ===>> It is very Important I think. The best way to collaborate with academia and universities is proposing the IoT research topics required by the RIPE Community to them and supporting the presentation of the results of joint research in international scientific communities as well as RACI in the Ripe NCC Meetings. I'm Faculty Member in ICT Research Institute of IRAN and also Chairman of Iran IoT Academy. So, I can do it in Iran for RIPE. Also I'm volunteer to do this worldwide (we have international collaboration in IoT Academy) <blockquote type="cite"> <pre>5) Training & Documentation Should the WG try to develop training materials/tutorials on IoT, white papers, use cases, best practices and so on? [Probably yes.] If so, what should these focus on and are there any volunteers to help produce these?</pre> </blockquote> ===>> It is necessary. One of our main activities in IoT Academy of Iran is doing this. I'm volunteer to do this, also. <blockquote type="cite"> <pre>8) Policy Making What sort of policies (and on what) could the WG develop for the NCC to implement?</pre> </blockquote> ===>> It is very important to have a IoT Strategy Plan for RIPE NCC. <blockquote type="cite"> <pre>9) Tools and toys Does anyone have new/interesting tools for playing with IoT devices or have useful development environments for them, say for writing/debugging code on a Raspbery Pi or even cheaper chipsets?</pre> </blockquote> ===>> In IoT Academy of IRAN we use Raspberry Pi, Banana Pi, Edison, Arduino, ... Boards.
