London was recently the location for an Internet Society INET event, on 29 September 2010.
This brought more than 170 UK participants to a one day conference hosted jointly by ISOC England and ISOC Global.
The title of the Conference was:
The Internet revolution: Opportunities, threats and challenges to your business - ignore it at your peril!
The range of subjects addressed by the excellent panellists comforted the Chapter in continuing its focus on the key projects described above.
More information and pictures on the ISOC-E Events page.
More events to be announced soon. Watch this space!

RECENT Projects
IPv6 crawler project In November 2009, ISOC England has received a community project grant from ISOC Global for the design and building of an IPv6 Crawler - a set of computers which would crawl through the Internet and collect IPv6 usage data, thus tracking the use of IPv6 worldwide.
A short presentation of the project was made at the London INET on 29th September 2010. The deck of slides can be downloaded from here.
