I really think taking the discussions that are labeled as "off topic" to
another forum is a great idea. I think this list is fantastic and I
usually enjoy reading the "off topic" threads as much as the ones that are
relevant to what we see as this list's charter. A lot of it loosely falls
into that "networking with other professionals" category and I would hate
to see it completely eliminated. I think it shows that we are comfortable
with each other and have respect for each other's opinions and feedback on
a variety of topics that we feel strongly about.
If a second list were created, I would still sign up for it, but I'd send
it to my home address where I could go through the thoughts and theories in
leisure. All I want at my work address is the information that is current
and relevant to what I'm doing at work, without having to dig.
If anyone else feels the same way and would still be interested in
participating in the "off-topic" discussions as long as it were in a
different venue, let's just do it. Let's create the list and move these
fascinating discussions there. I'll be first in line to sign up.
And speaking of relevant work related data, I wanted to express my
appreciation to T. Sugahara for the shared info on the Badtrans worm. I
had somehow missed the detail of it adding the _ to the reply to e-mail
address in my other readings. That little tidbit was a valuable heads-up
to me that I used immediately. Thank you very much.

I have been reviewing my E-mail in-box and noticed several discussion
threads dealing with non-Information Security issues and again ask the
question, is this the forum to tout personal opinions about legal matters
and other issues?
When I joined this mail group the purpose was to obtain and pass along
useful information that helps metro-Portland companies learn about and
resolve IS and Security problems.
Perhaps it would be beneficial for those who wish to have these
discussions, create a forum in which they can do so.
