[AusNOG] 23 VOIP phones for sale

[Sean K. Finn]

I thought the Hideously long signatures was the way to actually sell stuff on AuSNOG?

That's my point, people complaining about these posts is more of a problem than the actual posts themselves.

I have no problem with people selling stuff on-list as long as it's not their primary business activity, or if it's a special community-minded thing like your Juniper promotion.  Let's add it to the charter and clear the ambiguity.

And if we've accidentally created an atmosphere where people are afraid to post, perhaps we should all make a conscious effort to be nicer and less abrasive to new members.

I don't think it is about volume.

I think it is about fear.  Look at every email that is off-topic that is sent. 'I hope this doesn't upset anyone', etc etc.

If it was allowed, and there was no fear of people getting grumpy, then there would be no issue.

Is there really much of a point to that though?  The ratio of these posts to regular posts is very low, and all that I foresee happening with this is that people find out about AusNOG from somewhere, then they join the main one and miss out on the other sub-lists.

We have more meta-conversation around the idea of people posting stuff for sale to the list than we have with people posting stuff for sale to the list.

We've asked the AUSNOG guys to setup other lists in the past, but we've got no action.

I'd like to see lists for:

- hardware
- jobs
- general chitchat (so the main list is operational only)

How about setting up a separate list for Equipment / IP sales - I'd certainly subscribe?
To avoid Spam just restrict posts to members only.
