Good morning and welcome to a new work year. I hope everyone managed some time off over the festive season.<br>
<br>
Over the last few months the quality of content on the AusNOG mailing list has dropped appreciably. It appears that some members of our community misunderstand the purpose of the list and are using it in a number of ways that are in breach of the list charter. That cannot continue.<br>
<br>
To help clarify the purpose of the list we have updated the list charter. I'd ask that you all read the charter at the link below so that everyone clearly understands the purpose of this list.<br>
<br>
<a href="http://www.ausnog.net/mailing_list/charter" target="_blank">http://www.ausnog.net/mailing_list/charter</a><br>
<br>
In particular, and I'll paraphrase from the charter, this list IS NOT to be used for :<br>
<br>
* level 1 vendor specific tech support. If there is a vendor / product specific list or forum please use that.<br>
<br>
* name calling and other unprofessional behaviour<br>
<br>
<br>
With regard to specific threads that occurred over the Christmas break, I'm at a loss. The conduct of some members hit a new low and that sort of behaviour cannot continue. As such some individuals have been warned about their conduct and others are now being moderated. Please be warned now that from here on we will swiftly moderate members that ignore the charter. We will continue to moderate list members until the quality of postings increases to an acceptable level.<br>
<br>
In response to being moderated, one list member responded with an email along the lines of "If you people were doing your job ....". Can I just remind everyone that we are a group of individuals who volunteer a few man-weeks per year of work towards running the AusNOG Conference. We also facilitate this mailing list. It is hardly "our job" to force the "professionals" in our industry to act professionally. We'll leave that to each of you.<br>
<br>
Thanks for your time and I look forward to your cooperation and assistance in getting this mailing list back on track.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
<br>
David - on behalf of the AusNOG Board<br>
