I personally don't object, per se, but I dropped off the inet-access list earlier this year due to the unbearably low signal/noise ratio. If the NANOG list were to become a cacophony as did inet-access, you can scratch this list too. I figure that if anyone on inet-access is interested in the discussion(s) here on NANOG, then they are already subscribed. $.02, - paul At 11:16 PM 12/1/96 -0800, David Carmean wrote:
I've started expanding the last couple years of the archives of this list back into hypertext (Hypermail at the moment) so I could review some of the threads that are more than a couple of months old.
If I get the OK for the resources from "The Management", would any (many?) of you object to me making the existence of my unofficial mirror known to inet-access, etc.? I have some concerns that it might precipitate off-topic noise on this list, but I also think that it would be a good resource for those on the steep portion of the learning curve to understand why things are the way they are, e.g route filtering, peering restrictions, etc....
Thanks

I figure that the point of the hypermail archive is to make the NANOG wisdom available to ISP's that are on the steep part of the learning curve so they do not have to join the NANOG list and ask their FAQ's here. IMHO this is a good thing (tm) and I will promote it on all the ISP lists with a warning about asking newbie questions on NANOG. The list archive at http://www.nanog.org is OK but a threaded one would be more valuable.

Let me guess: Last spring during the CDA rants with Karl going full bore? Yup, I logged off it too for a while. It's better now, few messages, more signal. But the s/n is still a fraction of nanog:( Still, as someone on the steep side of the learning curve I'd love to have hyper-access to the things this list has covered. --- David ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- It's *amazing* what one can accomplish when one doesn't know what one can't do!
