Thanks for the suggestion, Rodney. As always, our preferred method for asking questions is the Mbone, and there's more info here: http://www.nanog.org/mtg-9905/network.html People can also send in questions by sending mail to nanog-support@merit.edu - we'll be monitoring those messages during the sessions. --Susan Harris On Sun, 16 May 1999, Rodney Joffe wrote:

At previous NANOGs, people who have been watching via mbone and whatever other flavors of broadcast were working have had to make comments/ask questions via the NANOG list, or by emailing a friend with connectivity in the meeting. This also holds true for the ietf stuff as far as I remember.

As we know, the NANOG list takes a looooong time to distribute, by which time the subject matter the question relates to, and/or the session is long since forgotten.

I'd like to suggest that at each session the NANOG organizers identify an email address or irc channel of some kind that is monitored by the moderator for remote questions...
