And too much secrecy. In the normal state of affairs where the MLC is acting as a list moderator, all the communication should go to the list itself. After all, as RS stated, most of the communication is just advice about what is and is not appropriate. > I'd be less than forthright to not point out that the job is > kind of thankless, but why don't you throw your hat into the > ring anyway I think that if the bulk of the work is done in the open, then it isn't so thankless. Maybe it's time to change the structure of the NANOG organization and farm out the MLC enforcement work to the SC. It should only be necessary in exceptional cases therefore should not place undue load on the SC. That way the MLC becomes the LMC (List Moderation Committee). Nash drug, Alex, has been doing a great job on the stuff that has been visible, such as the thread summaries. The SC really should invite him to form the new LMC and continue the work of gardening the list and increasing the signal. NANOG still has an overall positive reputation out in the world, which causes people to recommend it to friends and coworkers. --Michael Dillon _______________________________________________ Nanog-futures mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.nanog.org/mailman/listinfo/nanog-futures
