Fwd: Welcome to the "Marketing" mailing list
Um, Can someone explain this one to me? 1. Why was such a list created? 2. Why was I automatically subscribed to it? 3. Why was this done without notice to the community? Thanks, Owen Begin forwarded message:

Before this erupts in yet another thread, this was already asked (and answered) on Futures. Betty had an oops moment this morning, and has since repaired it. Followups to Futures. -- You've confused equality of opportunity for equality of outcomes, and have seriously confused justice with equality. (Woodchuck)
So Sorry Owen, as explained earlier, my mistake in list management! All resolved and those members added to the wrong list have been removed. Again sorry for the email noise. Sincerely, Betty On Thu, Nov 17, 2011 at 12:35 PM, Owen DeLong <owen@delong.com> wrote:

It's OK.. Everybody's entitled to at least one low-caffeine low-impact faux pax a year. ;)

Thanks, This has a lot of us wondering the same as Owen. This is also not typical of how NANOG does things. Hopefully as the day

Everyone: This was truly just a honest mistake on my part. You are all right, should not have happened and I apologize. Marketing@nanog.org is a list used in connection with Sponsorship inquiries/activity. refer to http://www.nanog.org/sponsors/ Membership of marketing@nanog.or is the Development Committee and NANOG Staff. As I indicated, I was planning to update the members@nanog,org list, and just happened to be in the wrong interface. All best.

To echo what Betty said and address an unspoken concern: "marketing@nanog.org" is the mailing list (and external interface?) for the folks who make sure that there are good cookies and other break goodies, beer-n-gear sponsors, meeting hosts, etc. It is most assuredly not a spamming list, which I suppose is probably what went through folks' minds when they got that email. I know that's what I would be wondering if I randomly got that kind of mail with no background info. If you've ever been unfortunate enough to manage Mailman, you're probably as astonished as I am that this sort of pilot error doesn't happen more often. :-) Now that that's out of the way, if you think you might have something to contribute to the community (marketing or otherwise) they're always looking for volunteers... so maybe you *want* to be on that mailing list - the community will be grateful. -R (former Board, fomrer MLC) "Betty Burke <betty@nanog.org>" <betty@newnog.org> writes:

My, but there are a lot of people, in my best friend's favorite phrase, "spring loaded to the pissed-off position". I didn't think NANOGers were quite so prone to recreational indignation...
