google: ipnmoo (it's not really hiding) it's many years old, and inspired by the spirit originally intended by craig's ipn-list. (i.e., it wasn't kc's idea) it's still supported (at the very least) but i don't consider it a reasonable substitute for the Right Way. but then i don't see any other Reasonable Substitutes for the Right Way (i.e.., beyond nanog-mailinglist) gaining any traction, so i probably shouldn't be so hard on it. http://www.caida.org/projects/ipnmoo/ telnet://ipnmoo.caida.org:4766/ (note i moved it from www.caida.org:4766; i'll get the web page fixed tomorrow) k On Wed, Mar 13, 2002 at 10:33:28PM -0500, Jeff Mcadams wrote: Also sprach Sean Donelan

It's still there, but doesn't see much activity these days.
Yep, IPNMOO is still around, and some people use it. NANOG is the closest thing we have to a "all-hands" channel, but lots of people don't like the signal to noise ratio. I have my nocwire list, but its mostly just interesting things sean saw on the net. Individual engineers use IRC, AIM, etc to communicate with people they know.
Its informal, but so far it has served us well.
It might be worthwhile to post a pointer to this MOO. There have been several posts about it, but no pointers on how to access it. I only have very limited experience with MUD's/MOO's/whatever, but I'm certainly willing to give it a shot if it helps inter-provider communication. -- Jeff McAdams Email: jeffm@iglou.com Head Network Administrator Voice: (502) 966-3848 IgLou Internet Services (800) 436-4456
