A note to users of this list: dns§iia.net.au is intended for discussion of Australian DNS issues. There have been a number of complaints lately concerning the nature and level of debate on this list. This has lead us to to consider a form of semi-moderation which is designed to encourage standards of propriety that will maintain the value of the list to bona fide subscribers. We have therefore formulated three rules which we ask subscribers to follow as a condition of further use of this list: 1. basic levels of courtesy should be observed - personal attacks on other contributors or third persons are unnecessary and will not be tolerated. 2. contributors should avoid undue repetition of arguments; once the basic point is made it need not be reiterated or elaborated on ad nauseum. 3. discussion should be confined to issues directly relating to the DNS situation in Australia including policy, commercial implications, and options; there are other lists available for more generalised discussion, or for discussion relating specifically to other areas of the DNS, as opposed to the DNS in Australia. If you disagree with being bound by these rules, please unsubscribe now. Subscribers should appreciate that these rules are not intended to dampen the free expression of ideas, but rather to ensure that debate is relevant and constructive and therefore of value. Blatant disregard for these rules may result in subscribers being temporarily or permanently banned from the list. In order to avoid moderation by a single point of view, no-one will be unsubscribed without multiple complaints by other members of the list sent directly to me at lukec§iia.net.au. Complaints regarding a subscriber sent to the list will be disregarded. We recognise that this system is not perfect, and that there is still a degree of subjectivity in it, but we feel that it will be an improvement over the existing situation. Additional suggestions may also be made directly to me at lukec§iia.net.au. Regards Luke Carruthers Acting Chair, ADNA Secretary, IIAReceived on Tue Jun 23 1998 - 10:22:10 UTC
