North American Network Operators Group Date Prev | Date Next | Date Index | Thread Index | Author Index | Historical RE: Level3 problems
Hmmm ... I suppose I would prefer this community not be made an explicit source of information for a reporter. Implicitly, if reporters must hang off this thread, they should be able to discern impact from perspective given here. However, if questions like the one(s) asked below became "standard" on this thread, then soon the function of the group slants to something other than a forum to aid (each other) in the proper "management" of the affairs of Network Operators ... and may morph into something far less useful. No intention to "scare" ... -gh -----Original Message----- From: Alex Rubenstein [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, October 21, 2005 1:43 PM To: Gary Hale Cc: [email protected]; [email protected] Subject: RE: Level3 problems Gary, I understand your statement, but I am sure the gentleman below does not. If you want a story to be done, so that the world can see how something like this can impact thousands of businesses, the best bet would be to help educate this guy so that he has something to write. Are, were you trying to scare him off from doing a story? Personally, I am quote fed up with the issues that the huge providers have and cause, yet never have anyone document it, find out about it, or do anything about it. I laud this guys effort for actually trying to do his job and expose something that needs to be exposed. I am now putting on my level-3 bullet proof jacket, and will be looking over my shoulder for the next 3 NANOGs.
