[AusNOG] Chill Out Everyone

[Chris Hurley]

I have to agree, chill out, is ANY list perfect I doubt it (I've yet to
find one). Given the list has 2,500+ members the amount of white noise is
minimal. 

Personally I hope this doesn't split the 'community' into the have and
have not's. No we don't have our own AS - the reasons are long and boring.

But I've found this group a good melting pot. Many/some have made the odd
post that have gotten a 'bullet/kick' for sticking outside the strict
boundaries of the group. UNLESS it's a gross sales pitch, most people
"pushing" the boundaries are people asking for help/guidance. Yes there
may be a better group to post a particular question to, but I ask is that
reason enough to split this group?

Chris Hurley BE (Elec), MBA
