I think some here have been reading it as "large network operators".  I 
guess the list is just for the express use of Level 3, Sprint, AT&T and 
Verizon, then.

I actually agree with your sentiment.  MANOG is a place to learn.  I've 
learned quite a bit in my early days from interaction with the people of 
NANOG, if not really a whole lot from the mailing lists or the 
presentations at the conferences.  I think the same should continue to 
be offered going forward.
