Hi, I had an interesting experience yesterday. I got to talk to a person claiming to be with the DoJ in Philly (if memory serves). Apparently they are investigating one or more posts in the Aug. time frame for something. They were interested in a subpeona regarding technical information about the list. The person didn't make it clear exactly who they were investigating. The questions were focused on how the mailing list worked and where there was editorial opportunity. They were also interested in mail and network logs for that time frame (which I don't normally keep past 3-4 days). I was very carefull to explain that IP spoofing was easy to do so that the veracity or reliability of the logs was in question. I'm deciding not to provide the persons name and contact info since I'm not sure what the effect would be. I requested they talk with my lawyer in regards to future information and that I wasn't interested in getting involved. That's about all I have on the topic at this time. -- -- ravage@ssz.com jchoate@open-forge.com www.ssz.com www.open-forge.com
