[Nanog-futures] [Outages] Outages have an Outage? (fwd)

I've been seeing two kinds of discussion on the NANOG mailing list about 
the Outages mailing list.  I've seen people post asking about various 
outages and be redirected to the Outages list, and I've seen outage 
notifications saying that the Outages list has been down for days (or 
maybe longer) at a time.

Is the Outages list of interest to the NANOG community?  Should NANOG, 
which if I'm remembering correctly has a nice shiny new professionally 
managed mail server take over the operation of the Outages list in order 
to improve its reliability?
