titleBroadband Forum Spring Newsletter

Our Spring Member Meeting saw our biggest attendance in more than 15 years, drawing 158 attendees to Mainz, Germany. We have enjoyed a very productive meeting, and continue to build on the success of 2023, with 16 new work area projects started and two new Open Broadband projects launched since our last meeting.

In Mainz, the home to the invention of Gutenberg’s printing press and no stranger to ground-breaking tech innovation, we opened the meeting with discussions on the latest significant breakthrough in tech history. Bringing together technology innovators from across the industry, our Town Hall Innovation Series explored the growing role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) in broadband networks. The BASe Technical and USP Summits took place in tandem with our member meeting and was highly attended with a host of engaging plenary sessions, roundtables, and video demonstrations. The three events amassed a total of 243 registered attendees across five days.

Thank you to all of our work area directors, project stream leaders, editors, and contributors for their continuous dedication in building universally adopted open standards and open-source software. Talking with many of the attendees, there was real energy and enthusiasm surrounding the ongoing work and direction of the Broadband Forum... Read more.

    A word from Robin Mersh, Broadband Forum CEO:

    "It is perhaps fitting, as we reach the halfway point in another exciting year for Broadband Forum, that I am writing these notes in Seoul, South Korea – home to the world’s highest average Internet speeds and the highest fiber optic broadband penetration. In fact, I wonder why this is our first appearance in this dynamic, technology-hungry country, where we have been made most welcome by our sponsors Korea Telecom (KT) and the GiGA Wire Alliance. Their enthusiastic demonstrations of GiGA Wire and G.hn, and the site visit to a live installation at a challenging shopping center Multi Dwelling Units (MDU) complex, were not only fascinating but reminded me of how in the telecoms industry we are all part of a family; driving broadband forward everywhere we go."Read more.

    • Bitbucket is a code repository.
    • Bamboo is a continuous integration server.

    Additional software tools include FishEye, Crucible, SonarQube, Artifactory, and others - these are used for BBF's Open Broadband (OB) work.

    All BBF members have access to these tools - Sign up and review our members-only FAQ for more information.
