% most of your talk was ok, but i was frankly offended by the % gratuitous hype at the end -- advertising on behalf of any vendor, % independent of product, is inappropriate at a conference like NANOG. % worse, your freebie plug was literally all hype and no substance, and i % believe that it is not unreasonable for you to apologize to everyone for this % appalling misbehaviour at the end of an otherwise informative and even % interesting operationally-focused presentation. I apologize for making reference to a specific vendor announcement at the end of the presentation. It was uncalled for. --bill
