More than 700 individuals from the broad Internet2 community gathered at the Spring 2006 Internet2 Member Meeting, which took place 24-26 April 2006 in Arlington, Virginia. Attendees participated in both the formal program and informal interactions around topics like middleware, network security, artistic collaborations, content and data sharing, collaboration technologies, international networking, K20 networking, and many others. This meeting highlighted why making connections has remained a core benefit of participation in the Internet2 community. Even as our community develops technologies that aid collaboration at a distance, the Birds-of-a-Feather sessions, hallway conversations and the many serendipitous encounters that took place in Arlington underscore the value of bringing people together in one place.
Acknowledgements
Internet2 meeting planners would especially like to thank the individuals of the program committee as well as the corporate and university member organizations that provided significant support for the meeting. The program committee put together one of the strongest group of sessions we have ever had. Without the support of our member sponsors such as Juniper Networks, Ciena, HP, Meriton Networks, RADVISION, VBrick Systems, VSNL International, Georgetown University, and the Mid-Atlantic Crossroads, we would not have enjoyed the high-quality networking infrastructure critical to keeping us connected at the meeting or the sensational reception events that spurred new personal connections and collaboration opportunities.

Save the Date for the Fall 2006 Tenth Anniversary Member Meeting!
Planning is underway for the Fall 2006 Internet2 Member Meeting, which will be held 4-7 December at the Hyatt Regency McCormick Place in Chicago, Illinois. In was in Chicago that, ten years ago, the advanced networking community formed Internet2, and took a big step forward to maintain a leadership role for U.S. research and education. The Fall Member Meeting offers us an opportunity to recognize the accomplishments of the advanced networking community over those years, while we also look ahead to the next decade of innovation in support of science and scholarship. The Call for Participation for the meeting will be announced on 30 June, and we hope you will join this celebration of 10 years of community achievement in networking.
