Mehmet, I think this is a cool idea, perhaps a good format for the documentation would be something along the lines of 
an “awesome list”? (https://github.com/sindresorhus/awesome)

Subject: DOs and DONTs for small ISP

hi there,

I know there are folks from lots of small ISPs here and I wanted to check-in on asking few advice points as I am 
involved building an ISP from green-field.

Usually, it's pretty straight forward to cover high-level important things, filters, routing policies, etc.but we all 
know the devil is in the details.

I am putting together a public DOs and DONTs blog post and would love to hear from those who have built ISPs and have 
recommendations from Billing to Interconnection, Routing policy to Out of the band  & console setup, Software 
recommendations, etc. Bottom line is that I would like to publish a checklist with these recommendations which I hope 
will be useful for all.

thanks in advance for your help and recommendation.

Mehmet
