Bill anf Hank,
This mail and the other initial mails about RIPE CENTR were purposely sent to both tld-wg and tld-admin. As Bill correctly points out these lists are different with tld-admin being meant for use of tld regisrties to discuss operational matters. There is not plan to merge these two lists.
(this being sent to tld-wg just to reduce the noise, as I think all subscribers of tld-admin are on it too) To be honest, I have yet to see a single message that would warrant the two separate lists. There CAN be a very good reason for using the tld-admin list: should the tld-wg (being open in its nature) become "infested" as happens to many public and open lists, we would at least have a sensible moderated forum left in which to communicate (may each one define "infested" as s/he so pleases). Meanwhile, I welcome the odd contribution from non TLD admins, so I'll try and cut down the junk. Yours, John Broomfield. GP & MQ NIC -------- Logged at Sun Jan 25 12:15:09 MET 1998 ---------
