What network does Nanog-news operate?
Marketing email doesn’t belong on an operational list. Even if its NANOG marketing itself. (Ack Kentik non involvement).
This is the right comment.
The NANOG Mailing List Usage Guidelines ( https://www.nanog.org/resources/usage-guidelines/ ) are fairly clear about this.
Posts to NANOG’s Mailing List should be focused on operational and
technical content only, as described by the NANOG Bylaws. Using the NANOG Mailing List as a source for private marketing initiatives, or product marketing of any kind, is prohibited.
Sending this type of message to nanog@ is not appropriate, by our own rules. This issue will be raised at the next members meeting.
Thats great. Thanks. This started to happen sometime around June looking at the sender address and my inbox. It would be nice to be opt-in vs opt-out and that labels are crafted to not confuse the ops list with others. I also agree with Randy that if we can strip out the trackers here that is key. Consistent with culture and history. Course adjustment ++. Hope thats constructive. Thanks!
