I concede the point that operational tracking of botnets doesn't belong here,
and I offer apologies to Martin, and the list in general, for not
counting to ten before replying to his email. However, simply suppressing
discussion of the topics isn't a good way to foster a cooperative working
environment.
I'd like to thank those few folks who corrected me, today. I was wrong in
what I felt was appropriate, and I shouldn't have gone off in the manner I
did.
Moving to a more productive stance for this thread:
How many people have subbed in the past month? The past year? There's
stuff in the FAQ about what's directly relevent to this particular list,
but there are a million related sub-topics with low level chatter that
would overwhelm a single list, like this one. Is there a helpful resource
that references these lists, to give subscribers a better grasp on topic
specific lists that other nanog users deem productive, clue packed and
useful?
