From: Stephen Wolff <swolff () cisco com> SRI lost to NSI in a competitive procurement run by DISA, and SRI turned over the database to NSI as a consequence. ... When the dust settled on the peer-reviewed and competitive NSF solicitation, NSI had won the registration piece; this avoided yet another transfer of the non-USG-related part of the database to the winner.
Hey, now that you are at Cisco, rather than NSF, maybe you can tell us how a "competitive procurement" or "peer reviewed" panels could have possibly chosen a group with no Internet experience and only a single 56Kbps line over the other bids from well-known, well-connected (bandwidth-wise) organizations? Well-connected politically? I distinctly remember the teething pains of _that_ baby! WSimpson () UMich edu Key fingerprint = 17 40 5E 67 15 6F 31 26 DD 0D B9 9B 6A 15 2C 32
