* Isolation
* Facts & data

We are looking for ideas that:
* are able to be prototyped in 3-5 days 
* give society access to reliable information
* give people hope in this difficult time
* provide a sense of security in the face of developing crisis"

My contribution

• Creatively Connecting Communities
  • I want to cross-link all of these separate hackathons!
  • Let's combine our strengths & work on this together!
  • I'm interested in OPEN communication & sharing of knowledge, data, ideas, results

• RIPE NCC has a wealth of data available, about Internet measurements:
  • reachability : https://atlas.ripe.net
  • routed prefixes: https://ris.ripe.net
  • IP-to-geolocation infrastructure mapping: https://ipmap.ripe.net
  • portal & APIs for all of the above: https://stat.ripe.net

• I've helped organise 10 hackathons, resulting in 100's of projects:
  • all the code is available on GitHub: https://github.com/RIPE-Atlas-Community/ripe-atlas-community-contrib/blob/master/README.md
  • all the reports are available on RIPE Labs https://labs.ripe.net/hackathons
  • there's a mailing list with the active community:

hackathon-list@ripe.net & https://www.ripe.net/ripe/mail/archives/hackathon-list/
