bay area cell service: tmo and cingular
by Matt Ghali 02 Jun '05

02 Jun '05

I've noticed in the last ten minutes or so that cingular and tmobile users are both unable to make or receive calls; at least in the Redwood City and Berkeley (!) areas. Anyone know if something is up? matto --matt(a)snark.net------------------------------------------<darwin>< The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing. - Edmund Burke

IANAL, and I haven't seen one post yet, so I'd suggest that if anyone has a question on the process or how it affects them, _they contact a real lawyer_. Latest publicly available NSL: http://www.aclu.org/nsl/legal/NSL_formletter_080404.pdf Latest FBI Memo on authority and filling out an NSL: http://www.aclu.org/patriot_foia/FOIA/Nov2001FBImemo.pdf Summary: Subpoena like, still requires internal approval, not part of FISA, but statutory authority under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court. Myth: Wiretap means voice surveillance. It insinuates it, but voice intercept is least used out of the CALEA punclist, believe it or not. Wiretap is used as a descriptor for all. -M<

I've seen an almost astronomical increase in bogus smtp connections ("did not issue MAIL/EXPN/VRFY/ETRN during connection to") within the past 18 hours. Up to +1100 today vs the usual 4 or 5. Anyone else? -Jim P.

Call for Steering Committee Nominations
by Betty Burke 01 Jun '05

01 Jun '05

Many thanks to those of you who worked so intensively with the community and Merit over the past six months to develop a new NANOG community governance structure. This email is being sent to both the NANOG and NANOG-futures email lists. If you have any questions regarding this email or the election process, please feel free to send them to bburke(a)merit.edu or srh(a)merit.edu. NANOG-futures(a)merit.edu will be archived on the NANOG web site and closed. Background information on NANOG's recent evolution is available here: http://www.nanog.org/evolution.html A new NANOG charter was approved in draft form at NANOG 34 in Seattle, and will be finalized by the end of June 2005. Please see: http://www.nanog.org/charter05.html Nominations and Election ------------------------ Nominations are now open for the first NANOG Steering Committee. The Steering Committee will consist of six elected members who serve staggered, two-year terms, and one member appointed by Merit. You may nominate yourself or another member of the community by sending email to nominations(a)nanog.org. Please include in text, a short (two-to-three-paragraph) biography of the candidate in the body of your message. Candidate names and bios will be posted on the NANOG web site from June 20-July 11. Elections will be held via electronic voting on the NANOG web site between July 11-25, and the new committee will be named by August 1. One member of the Steering Committee will be selected by a vote of the committee to serve as the Chairperson for a one-year term. The Chairperson will be selected at the first post-election meeting of the Steering Committee. Beginning in 2006, Steering Committee elections will occur annually, at the last NANOG meeting of the calendar year. Members of the first Steering Committee will hold office for a slightly longer term, until the fall 2006 meeting. In this first election, the three candidates who receive the most votes will serve two-year terms and the next three highest vote-getters will serve one-year terms to establish the staggered membership pattern. Eligibility for Voting ---------------------- Anyone who has registered for a NANOG meeting in the previous two years (as of the first day of voting, July 11, 2005) may vote in the July 2005 election. A list of eligible voters will be posted on the NANOG web before the election. Responsibilities ---------------- As noted in the draft NANOG charter, responsibilities of the Steering Committee include: - Program Committee Selection (beginning in November 2006) - Mailing List Administrator Selection - Budget Advisory Role - Liaison with Other Organizations For details on these responsibilities, see the draft NANOG charter: http://www.nanog.org/charter05.html#responsibilities Steering Committee members must commit to attend two out of every three NANOG meetings. Again, thanks to so many in the community for your support and investment in the recent discussions. Sincerely, Betty Burke
