Oh damn, that should read "half on the 'net community" of course.
Oh, that makes more sense. You certainly raised an exception on my parser.
I'd have gone for 'half of the net community' if I were saying it. (:-) I'm curious as to why the body that administers the 'nz' namespace should be perceived as a controversial choice. I'm not suggesting that they run anything, merely act as arbitrators in the event of dispute. At least each of the members of this list and/or their employers have the option of joining ISOCNZ and voting in a council to formulate policy. I'd throw down the gauntlet to the members of this list to join and change ISCONZ if they don't like how it's run. If ISOCNZ isn't a suitable candidate then can we hear some other suggestions. I'd say the University of Waikato aren't an impartial observer in this and the ISPs have no say in who would make up the members of an arbitration panel from that source. Of course, we could form YANONZ (Yet Another Networking Organisation in NZ) and waste even more time trying to raise funds and have meetings. -- Mailto:Andy.Linton(a)netlink.co.nz Tel: +64 4 916 5312 Post: Netlink, PO Box 5358, Lambton Quay, Wellington, New Zealand PGP public key: http://www.pgp.com/keyserver/pks-lookup.cgi -- --------- To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog
