The New Zealand Network Operators' Group
The New Zealand Network Operators' Group (NZNOG) has no king,
president or formal membership. At present it consists of the
subscribers to this mailing list, which anyone is free to join.
This list has just over 300 subscribers, with the number rising
by a few each month. You may only post to the list from an address
subscribed to one of the lists described below. (Non-member postings
and spam continue to be bounced in roughly equal volumes.)
The NZNOG mailing list is provided through a server at The University
of Waikato, and is administered by an employee of Telecom NZ Ltd.
Neither of these organisations (nor the administrator) is responsible
for its content.
NZNOG Mailing List Acceptable Use Policy
The NZNOG mailing list exists to provide a forum for the exchange of
technical information and the discussion of implementation issues
that require cooperation among New Zealand network service providers.
In order to continue to provide a useful forum for discussion of
relevant technical issues, users of the list are asked to respect the
following guidelines.
1. Discussion will focus on Internet operational and technical
issues.
2. Discussion related to meetings of network service providers is
appropriate.
3. Discussion unrelated to these topics is not appropriate.
4. Postings to multiple mailing lists are discouraged.
5. Postings that include foul language, character assassination, and
lack of respect for other participants are unacceptable.
6. Blatant product or service marketing is unacceptable.
7. Postings of a political, philosophical or legal nature are
discouraged.
8. Postings to the list should be in ASCII or MIME encoded as
text/plain. Attachments should not be sent to the list. To
present a document, a suitable URL may be referred to. For
documents of general interest, the use of proprietary file formats
is discouraged.
9. Breaches of list etiquette should be dealt with privately with the
offending list user, and should not result in complaints being
sent to the list.
10. A person repeatedly breaching list etiquette shall receive warnings
from the list administrator. A further breach after the second such
warning within thirty days shall result in the offender being
unsubscribed from the list. Other action may also be taken to block
postings to the list by the offender. Any such unsubscription is to
be immediately announced to the list.
Mailing List Archives
A full archive is available at http://list.waikato.ac.nz/archives/nznog/
Any message sent to the list will be archived and made available on the
web automatically.
Subscribing to the List
To subscribe to the NZNOG list, send email to
majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz, where the body of the message reads
subscribe nznog
Digest Mailing List
If you don't wish to receive postings as they are sent, you can
instead subscribe to the nznog-digest mailiing list, on which all
postings are sent out in a single "digest" every couple of days.
Post-only Mailing List
An address from which you wish to post, but which will not receive
messages from the list, may be subscribed to nznog-postonly. You
will presumably want to have another address subscribed to the
main nznog list.
Other Activities
Thanks to Cisco and Juniper for the 2001 Christmas party.
The list administrator may soon start seeking to twist arms in
search of contributions for a conference in late June or early
July 2002.
