I suggest it may be a good time to re-visit and re-clarify the list 
charter.  There seems to have been a bit of discussion and certainly 
some uncertainty about what is deemed on and off topic for this list and 
who (as a group) would be interested and be a part of it.

If we compare the NANOG with AusNOG list and the content on both it's 
quite obvious that the former is very operational and ISP focused, and 
the latter is at times, seems like 
anything-vaguely-relating-to-networking-in-au is OK - and IMHO worse off 
because of it.

Perhaps a SAGE-NETWORKING list (if it exists) would be a better place 
for more of the non-ISP related postings.
