I have been on this list a couple of months now but am only just
beginning to see its true purpose, a technical forum to discuss issues
around ADSL. OK speed, latency, etc. can be discussed here, but not
quality of service or help desk wait times? both of which are always
ISP specific.

Is there another NZ list where people can discuss these things.
It could be called ISP@lists.somewhere.nz:

If not, maybe someone could organise something, then those with a less
technical bent can stop "polluting" this list.
Of course there will always be crossover issues but people would then
be able to choose to subscribe to either or both.
