Understood. I note that the prior arin-discuss list was only open to ARIN members - do you have a particularly viewpoint on its replacement? > As Owen noted, other regions do operate exactly such generalized discussion > lists. Acknowledged - ARIN has such a generalized discussion list as well until very recently, but many years of autosubscribed people in its earliest days resulted in a less-than-usable forum for conducting actual discussion. We only recently eliminated it, but apparently the arin-discuss list – a list that had almost no traffic in recent years – is missed already - that’s almost touching.
