NANOG-L is unique. There isn't anything else devoted to issues for truly large networks, and the providers that manage the distance between them. When I see Cisco (or Juniper, or Extreme) announcements about a vulnerability, those are useful. Nonsense about Solaris 10 telnet vulnerabilities, or FedGov meetings, or requests for someone from Comcast to please call (and what is it with Comcast, anyway?).
As a quick comment on the Solaris 10/11 telnet vuln - there's still an unfortunately large population of network devices being managed via telnet. I'm willing to consider that on topic ;> cheers!
