for me, it's not the volume, per se. it is the shameless and (should
be) embarrassing self-promotion, the copying and reposting of others'
ideas and work, ... and it's not only gadi, but he makes such a good
example.
Lack of reference and cite would be something I would support the
AUP discussing.
The reason I addressed the volume component is that it seems
to go hand in hand i.e. it's always the same poster(s).
Overzealous mail list administration would make things only worse
(we already experienced it once, remember?). I'd rather we all
move one - as has already been made quite clear those who want to
block Gadi's messages have already done so and others of us find
his posts at times useful and at other times worth no more then
delete key that most other messages on the list also experience.
As to his lock of modesty and style when referencing other people's
work I suggest you take it up with him privately if you think its
worth your time. Otherwise I really don't see what nanog-l can do
about it as its not a academic paper submissions list and should
not become one...
