Off topic : Re: [apnic-talk] Please Moderate or close this list .... (fwd)

I've seen it all. Apnic decides to Censor...
Is Cisco sanctioning censorship too? I would think so if Mr. Greene is 
posting from a corporate account.

Would someone from Cisco wish to comment?

Barry,

As you have seen, the APNIC Executive Council has decided to attempt to
alleviate the situation by simply removing the primary cause instead of
closing and/or moderating the list.

While the apnic-talk list is intended to be an open discussion list where
people are free to participate as much or as little as they feel
appropriate, with that freedom comes a responsibility to not be disruptive
and/or discourage discussion by others.

As it was felt Jim Fleming had not lived up to that responsibility, the
chair of the APNIC Executive Council has indicated for the first time in
the history of APNIC that the rather extreme action of removal  from APNIC
mailing lists was appropriate.

Regards,
-drc
