As Randy alluded earlier, the right list to use for this kind of meta- 
nanog discussion right now is nanog-futures@nanog.org.

  echo "subscribe nanog-futures" | mail majordomo@medit.edu

This is absolutely the right place to make your opinions heard about  
mailing list policy, about blog entries or news articles being pasted  
onto the list, about exactly what is and what should be off-topic on  
the main list, and about the opportunities for venting frustration if  
someone says you're off-topic when you swear you're not. And all  
kinds of other stuff that ideally would never show up on the main list.

I imagine it will make the lives of the over-worked, volunteer  
mailing list administrator team much easier if these meta-threads  
could head to nanog-futures right away.

It would also make this particular SC member, speaking personally,  
very happy if the discussions could move there rather than simply  
ceasing. This is all important stuff to hear.
