Am I the only one who is uncomfortable with turning NANOG into a political tirade? Opposing legislation is one thing, turning it into an opportunity to elect your favorite candidate is another.
I agree. I think that NANOG is in no way the appropriate forum for discussion of a particular candidate. I do, however, feel that those in our industry need to be more politically active, especially with regard to legislation such as this. In fact, Mr. Simpson may have a good idea about the formation of ISP political lobby, but NANOG shouldn't be it. -Mike
