looking for status lists

["Tim Peiffer" <peiffer () nts umn edu>]

Can anyone point me to a list that has status and advance failure
announcements for the service providers whether ISP or NSP?  I would
also be interested in announcements on major policy changes that 
affect the internet community.  Please respond to me directly
as I will be removing my subscription from this list.

        Do you run a regional, national, or international network 
        who's traffic to and from my institution would be impacted 
        by failures in transit?  Do you operate a large commercial 
        service that suffers an occasional outage (Internic, AOL, 
        ...)?  If so, then I would be interested in subscribing 
        to your status announcement lists.

The nanog list has had a few good pearls out there during the MAE-WEST 
outages, and the various WorldCom fiber cuts around the country, but 
recently the discussions have degraded into a less than productive 
list with a fairly high amount of noise.
