Part of the evolution/changes were about being less "prohibitive" 
in this realm.  That still does not change it to an open-ending,
"anything goes" realm.  It is really as simple as Mr Underwood has
described it.

Official FAQ: http://www.nanog.org/listfaq.html#topics
 Appropriate Topics
 NANOG discussions are on-topic if they're of interest to people 
 running wide-area networks interconnected with other networks. 
 "Network operations" in this context means issues related to 
 entire networks, rather than to end users.

 Appropriate topics include routing, broad-based engineering
 problems/issues/solutions, outages, performance measurement, 
 evolving wide-area technologies, exchange points, traffic 
 engineering, operational experience, ISP security, and trouble 
 ticket systems.
