Named Data Networking (NDN) Project Monthly Newsletter for August 2015
The NDN project team compiles and publishes this newsletter monthly
to inform the community about recent activities, technical news,
meetings, publications, presentations, code releases, and upcoming
events. You can find these newsletters posted on the Named Data
Networking Project blog.
COMMUNITY OUTREACH
* Plans and agenda continue to firm up for the NDN Community Meeting
(NDNComm 2015) to be held at the University of California at Los
Angeles campus in the Little Theater, MacGowan Hall, UCLA on 28-29
September 2015. While registration remains open on the web at
http://www.caida.org/workshops/ndn/1509/ we cannot guarantee
support further requests to present.
* Hackathon: 26-27 September 2015. We are excited to announce the
first NDN hackathon scheduled prior to the upcoming NDNComm 2015.
Project proposals were due today 31 August 2015. For questions,
please email Steve DiBenedetto (dibenede at cs.colostate.edu).
Project representatives will pitch their ideas to hackathon
attendees and act as guides/mentors. We also plan projects
suitable for NDN newcomers. Please stay tuned to
http://www.caida.org/workshops/ndn/1509/#hackathon .
We hope to see you in LA!

* We posted a new version of NdnCon v0.4.3
<https://github.com/remap/ndncon/releases/tag/v0.4.3> (v0.4.3).
We do not yet recommend it as a reliable subsitute for existing
conferencing tools, however, we hope to soon satisfy the NDN NP
project's immediate needs (reliable audio prioritized over smooth
HD video).
* ChronoChat-js version v0.3 has been updated to use the ChronoSync2013
class in NDN-JS. https://github.com/named-data/ChronoChat-js It
can register with a remote NFD if NFD is configured to allow
localhop. You can try the online demo:
