Re: [Nanog-futures] Welcome to the Marketing mailing list
Normally, I wouldn't top post, but this one has me stumped. It's *damned* early for me, and I don't yet have the human qualities I might, later in the morning, but I'm pretty sure I didn't sign up for this, and would be absolutely *fascinated* to hear what it was all about (including the possibility that the server is compromised, or the folks *managing* the server have been compromised). I might also point out that, if this is legitimate, it's generally seen as polite to *ASK* before dragging someone out on the dance floor.

Re: Welcome to the Marketing mailing list
So Sorry Owen, as explained earlier, my mistake in list management! All resolved and those members added to the wrong list have been removed. Again sorry for the email noise.

Everyone: This was truly just a honest mistake on my part.

Re: Fwd: Welcome to the Marketing mailing list
To echo what Betty said and address an unspoken concern: market...@nanog.org is the mailing list (and external interface?) for the folks who make sure that there are good cookies and other break goodies, beer-n-gear sponsors, meeting hosts, etc. It is most assuredly not a spamming list, which I suppose is probably what went through folks' minds when they got that email. I know that's what I would be wondering if I randomly got that kind of mail with no background info. If you've ever been unfortunate enough to manage Mailman, you're probably as astonished as I am that this sort of pilot error doesn't happen more often. :-) Now that that's out of the way, if you think you might have something to contribute to the community (marketing or otherwise) they're always looking for volunteers... so maybe you *want* to be on that mailing list - the community will be grateful. -R (former Board, fomrer MLC) Betty Burke be...@nanog.org be...@newnog.org writes: Everyone: This was truly just a honest mistake on my part.
