It is down, "but coming back" according to Avi.

He didn't give an ETA.

Dunno the answer to your question, but SPAM-L just signed off, NANOG is
a hostile wasteland.

Maybe the time to sign off email has arrived.

I've hosted something called inet-ops at puck.nether.net which rarely if
ever gets used. Do not know if it would be of value to anyone. The
list is there either way.

Damn shame SPAM-L is about to be shut down. Seems the archives are going
away too and my personal store only goes back to March 2005. Lots of
usefulness in there in spite of the reasons specified for its demise.
It's also a shame that everything is offtopic on NANOG. The last thing I
got from inet-access was Nov. 15, 2008.

What exactly is left? Does anyone know? Not really interested in web
forums. Are there any worthwhile groups on usenet that aren't a spam
magnet? Maybe it's time to fire up an NNTP server.

It's *always* time to fire up an NNTP server if a web forum is
the alternative.

Anyway, thanks to Patrick for checking with Avi. I sent email to Avi
last night (since that's the address on the whois), but I doubt my name
is recognized like Patrick's. :-)

I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble.

I cheated, he is crashing at my place tonight so I didn't have to deal
with e-mail.

He says new listserve is in testing, should be in production in 3 days.
