A few of us have been operating and supporting a data center track at the
last 4 or 5 NANOG meetings. The sessions are well attended and the topics
are getting more interesting e.g. real estate, energy management and

There is reasonable demand for a forum.  It might need a little marketing
to get a list with traction going.
