Er, conventional wisdom has that the clue density is constant.
The 'net grows. Appearence of clue is reduced.
The CAIDA series is really a good idea. Mentoring is a great idea.
Potentially partnering w/ USENIX once a year would be of great
benefit. ARIN et.al. are trying to get some WG's off the ground.
There, a few good ideas. Tech. transfer, Empirical (SOP) knowledge,
Cross Disipline meetings. All waiting for someone to take charge
and complete the task. Not sure that it can be in the current
NANOG form thou. :(
