Correct. I've created this list because in asking around a bit there wasn't a resource for public discussions for those not currently in the exchanges, and people seemed to not know where to post questions to. (inet-access, nanog, isp-lists, etc). They're not necessarily just for NANOG type 'outage' messages, but for general discussion on people looking for peers, finding out how much it costs for a cable run, who to contact for info, and other general chit-chat about the points.
