Is the reduced usefulness of NANOG that Vijay observes a result of the revolution, or a result of SRH no longer being involved, or a sign of the times, or something else?
see my other email, i think that point is overemphasised..
I'm not at all convinced you can make such a sweeping generality stick on the basis of a public tif between Randy and Marty. Really, Randy having a public tif with someone is more or less a constant, regardless of what else is going on :-)
absolutely.
Do the enthusiastic NANOGers of 2000 just not have time/energy for this any more, and do their counterparts in 2007 find themselves in a business where the manuals are already written, and they just need to follow along?
theres a lot more competition for meetings, and they have diversified - the industry has evolved.
i think the SC should review the idea of 2 meetings per year tho, maybe that will bring focus and relevance. can i ask you to take it to your next SC meeting?
What needs to change for you to bother with NANOG again? Or are you already well beyond caring?
presumably anyone who complains does so because they care. the SC should note any points made no matter how well hidden in rhetoric and lack lustre insults :)
