Phil,
It's essentially a list at this stage. We were trying to get a
conference together or at least some regular meetings. Unfortunately we
are pretty busy.
> to stir the pot; say for instance if we wanted to discuss setting up
an independant IX?
Go for it. A bit surprised you had to ask though. I mean you could
simply post it on OZ-ISP if you had any concerns anyway - right?
> is there any commerical entities that we cannot critize, e.g. list
owner?
I can't remember that stopping you in the past Phil :)
Cheers

Best Regards
Phill.

List charter:
The AusNOG mailing list has been established to
provide a forum for
the exchange of technical information, the discussion
of specific
implementation issues that require cooperation among
network service
providers, the discussion of operational issues, and
the discussion of
technical issues directly relating to the internet
service provision
and telecommunications industry.
This is NOT a forum for journalists to pick up leads,
sales people to
sell things, or end-users to pester their ISP. Such
behaviour will not
be tolerated (see "Moderation" below).
Professional respect:
As a list subscriber, you are required to respect the
opinion of
others, even if you disagree with it. Healthy debate
on a topic is
good, however personal attacks or flaming will not be
tolerated.
It would be worthwhile for new list subscribers to
become familiar
with the posters on the list before jumping in. Some
of the guys here
are experts in their field and have spent years
building large-scale
networks. Their experience is a resource to be valued.
Remember that when you post mail to the AusNOG mailing
list, your post
will be received by hundreds, or even thousands, or
your current and
potential peers, customers, suppliers and employers.
Think before
posting . you don't want to look foolish in front of
these people as
these are the very people you may need to ask for a
job, or a favour,
one day. The list is also publically archived.
We ask that list subscribers refrain from using
derogatory language,
both towards individuals, and towards companies or
products.
Posting:
(a) Don't quote 50 lines of text and add one line to
it. Quote what is
necessary to maintain context, but don't overdo it;
(b) Keep your signatures and disclaimers short. It's
no fun seeing
signatures that are longer than your posts :-)
(c) Do not cross-post to multiple lists;
(d) Please don't post in HTML format - it tends to
annoy people who
read with text mode clients :-(
Attachments:
Please don't :-)
Autoresponders:
Please make sure that if you do use an autoresponder,
it's configured
to not autorespond to list e-mail. If it does, your
list membership
will, in all probability, be suspended until it's
fixed.
Moderation:
The AusNOG mailing list is reactively moderated - that
is to say that
posts will be delivered to members immediately, but if
the moderators
see the list being abused the abuser(s) will be asked
to refrain from
their activities. If the abuser(s) does not cease,
their list
subscription will be set to moderated mode, requiring
all future posts
to be moderator approved. Further inappropriate
activity may result in
the list member being removed.
Moderators will be appointed by the list operators in
due course.
Moderators will be selected from the list membership,
and will be
listed on this page.
