[AusNOG] Draft Copyright Notice Scheme basic survey results so far...

[Paul Julian]

Hi Steve and Mark, I totally understand your position and nobody is forcing anybody to do it, I’m sorry if that’s how it came across, if somebody is interested and wants to participate then great, otherwise no problems at all J
 
I was just being general in my suggestion that most people on the list would be affected by this, even as a consumer though people will be affected, and also why I suggested to send to anybody else in the industry who may be interested, even any other lists, please feel free to forward it to anybody who it will affect, the more responses it gets the more accurate the data will be I think.

I agree with Mark, I myself do not work for or represent and ISP, I work for an MSP and use this forum for monitoring potential outages/issues as well as other topical information…  some of which I have found highly useful other times… not so much.  For this reason I have not completed the survey as I don’t feel I’m an appropriate candidate but certainly can’t speak for anyone else within this forum.  I’ve certainly read the draft code and agree with most of the responses collected.  
 
While the results so far are interesting I’d have to be sceptical as to whether this truly represents the ISP population throughout Australia.  
 
Kind Regards,

Steve Smalley

I'd be careful of assuming it "gauge[s] interest and thoughts from people such as those on this list, the people who matter and make up the industry that we work in every day." Going by the off-topic posts to this list in the last few years, and the number of mailing list subscribers, I doubt the "AusNOG membership" is dominated by people working for ISPs any more.

Thanks for those who has responded to the basic survey I put together, and also to those who provided some feedback, I think it’s a good thing to throw these sorts of things together and gauge interest and thoughts from people such as those on this list, the people who matter and make up the industry that we work in every day.
 
I know not everybody likes doing these sort of things and fair enough, but I thought it was great way to get some info which was useful and not just hearsay.
 
The survey has been up for a couple of days now and there have been 53 responses so far which is pretty good, it would be great to get 200+ responses to get a real feel for peoples thoughts.
 
Anyway, basic results so far are as follows:
 
  
 Yes
 No 
 Don't Know
 
Have you read the draft code ?
 80.77%
 19.23%
 0.00%
 
Do you agree with its recommendations ?
 3.77%
 90.57%
 5.66%
 
Do you feel that this represents your thoughts ?
 3.77%
 88.68%
 7.55%
 
Do you feel that it addresses the issue and provides a workable solution ?
 5.66%
 84.91%
 9.43%
 
Do you agree that an ISP should be responsible for the content that it's users access ?
 0.00%
 98.11%
 1.89%
 
Do you think that implementing such a notice scheme will cost your business money ?
 92.45%
 5.66%
 1.89%
 
Will you be considering what options you have to circumvent the code if such a scheme is implemented ?
 81.13%
 7.55%
 11.32%
 
There are some pretty strong results in this and I think this mostly reflects the comments from people on this list so far, I am happy to send these results in a submission to the draft scheme once a reasonable amount of people respond and it reflects a decent proportion of our industry.
 
I am also more than happy to expand or change this survey if people think I am off the mark, so please let me know if you think of anything.
 
If you haven’t already completed it then it will only take about 30 seconds to do, or pass onto other people in the industry who you feel may be interested in this important subject.
 
Thanks and sorry to spam you if you aren’t interested in this.
 
Regards
Paul
