Re: Fwd: [nanog-admin] Vote on AUP submission to SC
3. Cross posting is prohibited. Just wondering on this one. It would appear to mainly hit things like the CIDR reports[1] , conference CFPs and news about new networks being allocated to the APNIC etc. Stopping these doesn't seem a priority. Or does it mean something else? [1] - These appear to be crossposted, but it's hard to tell since they are Bcc'd. -- Simon Lyall | Very Busy | Web: http://www.darkmere.gen.nz/ To stay awake all night adds a day to your life - Stilgar | eMT.

I see no technical difference between cross posting to another list or just a list if individuals. 8. Autoresponders sending mail either to the list or to the poster are prohibited. I also think this needs additional language to ensure that it is within the realm of the authority of the MLC/NANOG. NANOG has no authority to prohibit autoresponses that result in a direct email to someone on the list. Without this language, you will have a lot of people continuing to whine about getting an autoresponse when they CC everyone in the thread and one of them is on vacation. -Sean (Please respond only to the list)

Since this is the lists' AUP, whatever consenting adults do to their private email that has no bearing to the list is clearly OK. I already know of one case that someone that CCed nanog@ and the original poster complained when they got an autoresponder. The proposed language is vague enough that it does not make it clear if it applies only to messages send through the list, or a message to any individual that includes the list. If you all want to live in a vague world, then that's fine by me, but don't complain when you get complaints that arise out of the vagueness. -Sean (Please respond only to the list)

Well, that's why MLC is paid big bucks to separate loony complaints from real ones ;) -alex
Re: Fwd: [nanog-admin] Vote on AUP submission to SC
personally i find prohibited to be unnecessarily strong. sc hat on looks pretty much as expected from meeting and discussion between sc and mlc. What do you see that's different from what the MLC initial vote approved, what the community approved, and what you got?
