About Remote Participation

If you can’t attend a RIPE Meeting in person, you can still be a part of the meeting using the remote participation tools.

Remote participants can watch live webcasts of every session, and ask questions using dedicated chat channels. The session monitor will read your comment to the room.

We also provide a live stenography service for each session, so you won’t miss a thing.

All webcasts, chat transcripts and stenography transcripts are made available online in the meeting archive after each session ends.

IRC Chat Rooms
