I'll truncate the rest of Michael's excellent post for the sake of
brevity, but say that this is one of the best ideas I've heard in a long,
long time. At once, it addresses both of the big issues that NANOG is
facing: scope creep, and irrelevancy. Though I'd assumed the best way of
dealing with the former would be trimming back to two meetings a year, I
like Michael's way better.
