New NANOG Programme Committee
by Joe Abley 23 Oct '06

23 Oct '06

In its last scheduled conference call, the NANOG SC selected a new Programme Committee. With twenty well-qualified new candidates, and only eight open positions, it was a difficult decision to make. The SC, with input from the current PC, strongly felt it necessary to form a balanced PC, with a diversity of backgrounds, knowledge, and experience, and is representative of the entire NANOG constituency. The SC would like to thank outgoing PC members Hank Kilmer, Dave O'Leary and Kevin Epperson for their valuable contributions to the PC. In addition, the SC is grateful to the 12 candidates who volunteered their time but who weren't selected this time round. We hope you will all consider volunteering again next time. The NANOG Programme Committee for 2006/2007 is as follows: Existing members: Nick Feamster Dan Golding Joel Jaeggli Ren Provo Josh Snowhorn Pete Templin Todd Underwood Vish Yelsangikar New (or returning) members: Steve Feldman Igor Gashinsky Kobi Hsu Mike Hughes Keith Mitchell Ted Seely Richard Steenbergen Bill Woodcock Joe Abley (for the SC)

You know, it's just my 2cents worth, but with all the other OT things that fly around the NANOG list, this topic might not be a bad one to spend a few email messages on, given her heavy involvement with quite a few of the topics and people on this list. I had the rare honor of working with Abha during my time at InterNAP (approximately 1/2000 - 1/2001). She was a great mentor, not afraid to speak up and call something "just stupid" no matter who else was in the room. Her office door seemed always open, and she made time to explain concepts, no matter how basic they may have been to her. I thought I knew BGP before I started there (doesn't everybody?), and she made me realize how little I really knew. She spoke the "voodoo" of BGP like a native tongue. Her office was decorated with various pop-icon posters, and I never really understood whether they were actually people she liked, or if they were up as laughing points.. You'd ask her about them, and she'd wrinkle her nose, like "ewwwww" but yet they stayed up. She was a great friend to a lot of us at InterNAP at that time, and was missed when she left... And has been missed since.

New NANOG Mailing List Admin Team
by Joe Abley 20 Oct '06

20 Oct '06

Last night the NANOG SC made some changes to the composition of the mailing list admin team, in response to the revisions to the NANOG charter which were approved by the community in St Louis. After extensive discussion the SC selected an admin team which provided some continuity whilst also welcoming a new volunteer. The SC assigned terms to each member of the team in order to make the re- selection process described in the new charter straightforward to follow next year. These terms were assigned semi-arbitrarily (in one instance we tossed a coin to decide). Chris Malayter and Steve Wilcox have not been appointed to the new team. The SC would like to thank both of them for their dedication to the mailing list, and their key roles in helping NANOG evolve into a community-driven organisation. There were many excellent new volunteers who offered to serve on the panel, and from that pool of candidates the SC selected Aleksandr Pilosov. The SC would like to thank Aleksandr for offering to contribute his time to NANOG in this way. The SC also thanks those volunteers who were not selected for stepping forward and offering to help. We hope you will feel able to volunteer again in the future. The new mailing list admin team is as follows: Sue Joiner (appointed by Merit) Rob Seastrom (appointed by SC, 1-year term) Brett Watson (appointed by SC, 1-year term) David Barak (appointed by SC, 2-year term) Aleksandr Pilosov (appointed by SC, 2-year term) Joe Abley (for the SC)

Does anyone have a contact for THEPLANET.COM beyond their WHOIS listing? We are receiving 20,000 spam per day from one of their customers and they aren't very responsive.
