This may be of interest... For background on what Sean is doing, it
might be instructive to glance through some archives from the NANOG
list.
There are operators here using different domestic infrastructure,
different under-sea cables (as well as satellites operated by
different stellite operators, using different earthstations both
here and overseas).
So if there's a good mix of people contributing as the clock ticks
over to 1900, at least _some_ of it should get out.

Subject: subscription information for y2k list
The y2k-announce list will be used for administrative announcements through
December 30, 1999. From December 31, 1999 through January 3, 2000 the y2k-announce
list will only be used for significant events.
To subscribe to the y2k-announce list send a e-mail to majordomo(a)zocalo.net
containing the command "subscribe y2k-announce" (without the quotes) in the
body of the message. Lurkers are welcome on the y2k-announce list. Please
do not subscribe addresses with automatic responses, for example NOC trouble
ticket addresses which automatically respond with a ticket number.
The y2k-status list will be the workhorse list. It will contain regular status
reports including summaries of other ISP's reports, and information from the
Information Coordination Center and International Y2K Coordaintion Centers
through the New Year's weekend. Subscribers to the Y2K-status list are expected
to contribute by filling out a short template in each message, and mailing it before
the next status interval.
No one has been subscribed to the y2k-status list automatically. Please subscribe
the most appropriate address or alias for your organization. Remember, whomever you
subscribe should be prepared to report the status of your organization. The y2k-status
list will be moderated, and will only have summary posts according to the schedule below.
This should avoid problems with a deluage of chatting overwhelming the list.
In order for the list to provide the most value to everyone, everyone on the y2k-status
list should contribute.
To subscribe to the y2k-status list send a e-mail to majordomo(a)zocalo.net containing the
command "subscribe y2k-status" (without the quotes) in the body of the message. Please
do not subscribe addresses with automatic responses, for example NOC trouble ticket
addresses which automatically respond with a ticket number.
Hint: everyone should know the difference between their local time zone and UTC.
