Actually this list has been really good compared to some others. I think someone
is
doing this on purpose to limit the list and basically destroy the good
communications
that develop here. I generally lurk and learn more than stating my opinion and
would not be to happy with the demise of the list...

the distribution.

Sometimes, I'll post, and I'll get four, five, six replies before I see my
post to the list bounce back this way.  It takes hours. :-(  Too long for a
list where sometimes time-critical information is discussed.

Perhaps it is time to moderate nanog.  Send postings to a team of
moderators to screen for content before being approved for the list.  How
strictly the screening would be applied and who would moderate would be up
to the list.

I can host such a list on K-State's Listserv server.  Listserv has all the
tools needed to make this work.

Is there any interest in this?
