Since I value your input, I'm not sure if you are joking, or serious. I understand the humorous issues involved here (believe me, I do), I'm really serious about this, and I need serious feedback.
I was obviously joking about the "disinformation experts" comment, at least to some degree. However, I certainly do agree that it's a good idea to discuss this as you propose at the upcoming NANOG, especially in lieu of recent occurrences. I don't believe some folks realize how much people read into topics discussed on this list, or understand the impact that seemingly simple posts (accusations about Vendor A's broken software, Vendor B's broken hardware, ISP A's broken network, ISP B's poor customer service, ISP C's security practices, etc..) have on these businesses, and more so, the individuals involved, especially since those accusations are often [demonstrated] premature or completely unfounded. -danny
