[AusNOG] News: NextDC Launches Pay-as-you-go Colocation

[Sean Finn]

I was pretty sure that this is the residual Bevan list.  It's origins were
paid for with Beer, and it's constituents are maintained by beer.

I've always thought of this list as Bevans Beer and Peer and willingly
consume copious amounts at industry functions in return for signing service
agreements.

I thought everyone knew that's how things worked ?
