Close!  But no cigar.

Although IOPS communicates with NRIC through the CNRI-based IOPS
coordinator (Ira Richer) who earns that by attending their meetings,
NRIC is actually planning on contacting around 50 ISPs, Telcos 
doing ISP-like stuff, some of the larger vendors as well as some 
industry groups - all independently.
