This brings up an interesting point, and one that should probably be
raised at this time.

At SpamCon last spring, a number of people expressed interest in
pursuing this type of document, mostly from the perspective of an Abuse
Desk professional. That is to say, who would create a document that
could be used both by users and network abuse or support personnel in
explaining why systems had to be secured, and how to address the need
for a "best practices" type of approach for Abuse Desk staffs.

I don't know that it should/would be this group, but I'd be curious to
see what people's impressions are as to what scope the document should
cover.
