OT: Vendors Using NANOG for a Sales Channel

Sat Oct 27 15:22:48 UTC 2007

Just for the purpose of clarification - it was not the NANOG list that our
salesperson was using.  However, because the gentleman who brought it to our
attention cc'd NANOG - we apologized here as well.

Again -- very sorry for the distraction this created.

Kind regards,

The AUP that we ( the NANOG MLC) presented to the "community" at NANOG
41, which seemed to have wide support,  contained a new provision to
deal with this problem.

Hopefully, the "steering" committee will step up to the plate and approve
soon.
