"Large network operators" appears no where in the charter
(http://www.nanog.org/charter.html)  nor AUP
(http://www.nanog.org/aup.html).  While I agree that questions on
much rudimentary things (and vendor-specific for that matter) are
better *served* in other fora, they certainly aren't off-target.
Being awash in the queries would be a different matter, as they'd
be a simple referral to FAQ/wiki.

Given the desire for the list and the conference to mirror each 
other, I'd point out that 'basic' topics are often covered in 
tutorials and BoFs at the conference. As for jhawk... try finding
the last time he was a conference attendee.

Cheers,

Joe
