There is also a Python meetup some time next week at iHub (Tuesday or Thursday probably) - I'll be announcing it shortly once I find a speaker (anybody want to present?). We ask who's hiring and who's looking at the beginning of the meetup, although last time, only one person was looking for a position. http://www.meetup.com/Python-Nairobi I find that presenting at Python meetups is the best way to attract talent. -Adam -- Kili - Cloud for Africa: kili.io Musings: twitter.com/varud <https://twitter.com/varud> More Musings: varud.com About Adam: www.linkedin.com/in/adamcnelson On Tue, Feb 18, 2014 at 1:52 PM, Steve Obbayi <steve(a)sobbayi.com> wrote: > Maybe you should join us on the Google Group "Nairobi Python Users Group" > and post there again.

---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Frankie Onuonga <frankie.onuonga(a)gmail.com> Date: Thu, 27 Feb 2014 14:31:23 +0300 Subject: Reminder: 15 Min : EANOG Webinar: Internet Exchange Points & Migration To: "nairobi-gnu(a)googlegroups.com" <nairobi-gnu(a)googlegroups.com>, eanog(a)lists.my.co.ke, barry(a)tespok.co.ke Hi folks, Kindly Join us for our next webinar on 27th February 2014. In many developing countries, poor connectivity between ISPs often results in the routing of local traffic over expensive international links simply to reach destinations within the country of origin. IXPs offer many advantages, some of them are improving the quality of Internet services in a country by reducing the delays. IXPs also can be a convenient hub for hosting critical infrastructure within countries. Data centre migration offers many challenges. Even more challenging is the Migration and creation of new IXP's . This is an art mastered by few. Join Barry Apundo Macharia as he talks about his experience of setting up and running the Kenya Internet Exchange Point. This virtual training will be on webex (see details below) and was initially targeted at the East African Network Operators Group (EANOG). Please forward the links to friends partners and anyone that might be interested. We expect a varied audience so it will be a great interaction. ------------------------------------- To join the training session ------------------------------------- Date: Thursday, February 27, 2014 Time: 3:00 pm, Nairobi Time (Nairobi, GMT+03:00) (You can join 15 minutes earlier) Session number: 202 958 046 1. Go to: https://www.webex.com/login/attend-a-meeting 2. Enter your name and email address (or registration ID). 3. Enter the session password: eanog 4. Click "Join Now". 5.

EANOG Webinar Thursday 27 February
by Patrick Mithamo 26 Feb '14

26 Feb '14

Hi folks, Kindly Join us for our next webinar on 27th February 2014. In many developing countries, poor connectivity between ISPs often results in the routing of local traffic over expensive international links simply to reach destinations within the country of origin. IXPs offer many advantages, some of them are improving the quality of Internet services in a country by reducing the delays. IXPs also can be a convenient hub for hosting critical infrastructure within countries. Data center migration offers many challenges. Even more challenging is the Migration and creation of new IXP's . This is an art mastered by few. Join Barry Apundo Macharia as he talks about his experience of setting up and running the Kenya Internet Exchange Point. This virtual training will be on webex (see details below) and was initially targeted at the East African Network Operators Group (EANOG). Please forward the links to friends partners and anyone that might be interested. We expect a varied audience so it will be a great interaction. ------------------------------------- To join the training session ------------------------------------- Date: Thursday, February 27, 2014 Time: 3:00 pm, Nairobi Time (Nairobi, GMT+03:00) (You can join 15 minutes earlier) Session number: 202 958 046 1. Go to: https://cisco.webex.com/mw0401l/mywebex/default.do?service=7&main_url=%2Ftc…<https://cisco.webex.com/mw0401l/mywebex/default.do?service=7&main_url=%2Ftc…> 2.

ISOC grants webinar

http://www.internetsociety.org/events/information-session-how-apply-communi… This is potentially a good way for Kenyan/Ugandan groups to get grant money (up to $10k I believe) for their projects. There's a 25% matching funds requirement but I'm pretty sure ISOC is all about getting this money out so it's just a matter of smart organizations applying for it - ones that already have money (or goods in kind) being spent on projects and need more of it. -Adam -- Kili - Cloud for Africa: kili.io Musings: twitter.com/varud <https://twitter.com/varud> More Musings: varud.com About Adam: www.linkedin.com/in/adamcnelson

Nothing is more than 80% secure. All networks are insecure, but what matters is how you protect them. I currently did a Blackbox against an organization that i truly felt was soo protected, and i was actually afraid of taking the job, but later on, i was upside down and every where.

[OFF-TOPIC] Car importation in Kenya question
by Jayden Brayden 24 Feb '14

24 Feb '14

This is off topic so bear with me. Quick question: How are the year and months for cars to be imported calculated? Currently, Kenya allows cars <= 7 years to be imported to Kenya. Say we are currently in February 2014. Does it mean that I can only import cars registered after March 2007, or a car registered in January 2007 can also be imported? Will it be allowed at the port? Please shed some light into this, regarding how a car's registration/manufactured month affects what cars can be imported to Kenya. I'm all new to this :-) Thank you in advance.

Re: [Skunkworks] ECCouncil Hacked

@Steve, did you ever hear me say that you shouldn't do anything and wait for hack3rs to break your site? FYI, I'm a security researcher and always take web security seriously. As much as one tries to mitigate exploits, there are several advanced techniques which hack3rs use to break sites. These include: WAF bypasses, encoding sniffing, external entity injection and advanced SQL injection. KR, Joseph.
